      Pros

      It's a job, not a career.

      Cons

      Management is terrible. They play favorites among employees, offer no support or communication. Apparently, "Sell more! Now where's my drink?" is the extent of their strategic sales planning. They keep touting the same line about having "disruptive technology", but there really is nothing innovative about the products. It's a dead end.

      Pros

      Private company family feel with the support of fortune 200 parent. Company is actively working to become more diverse (female and race). Great place to work for talented folks how have lots of career runway.

      Cons

      Enterprise strategy is chasing away long term talent with vast institutional know how and deep relationships. Losing the entrepreneurial spirit of the past.

      Pros

      Rich past rooted in a history of growth and entrepreneurship, ITW has a strong management toolbox, sound leadership at the platform level, and great stock performance. Unparalleled shareholder value/ROI.

      Cons

      Has become highly 'corporate', despite its foundation as decentralized and entrepreneurial. Promotes diversity over delivery of results. Has recently abandoned the concept of teamwork and strategic-alignment at the divisional level.
