Pros

Good Pay, And Excellent Benefits.

Cons

It's easy to get lost in the shuffle, and you really have to champion your own cause. The org structure is counter-intuitive and constantly revolving new faces in leadership positions. Be prepared to walk into a very political environment, and to CYA at all times. Don't expect any upward mobility , but use the position to your personal advantage and growth for future opportunities. HR holds the reigns to the extreme extent that even senior leadership roles are rendered ineffective. "all the responsibility with none of the authority" . Make the most of the role in front of you but think short term if you are choosing ITW as your next move.
