      Pros

      Big Company, opportunity for advancement is always available, a lot of networking capability

      Cons

      Extremely closed minded Management expects employees to live by the Guiding Principles (which by the way are nothing more than common sense) but management does not practice these NEARLY as much Favoritism is an EXTREMELY big issue here Micromanaged beyong any other employer out there. Political views are forced onto employees. Very Unethical Cult Like DO NOT GIVE ANY RAISES!! Their "philosophy" on compensation is very out of touch with the real world.

      Pros

      None. Wichita has a nice downtown. If you actually value teamwork and a discussion of ideas, this is not the place for you.

      Cons

      The company supposedly follows MBM principles, but they are not applicable to senior and upper level management. Everyone is overly critical, constantly looking for flaws in fellow employees. If you do not act like everyone else, they look to weed you out and you will become a subject of managment discussions for separation. Senior management will yell and say anything to lower level employees, but you can not do the same. Everyone is walking around like they are in the George Orwell book, "1984". There is no such thing as enterprenuerialship there because everyone is afraid of losing thier jobs. The Kochs run the business for what it is, the only major employer in the area and they use it to control the employees and their movement within the other Koch entities.
