Utterly Dysfunctional.

Pros

Great training, exposure to interesting global projects and knowledgeable associates. Company has impressive principles and a benevolent underpinning.

Cons

Incredibly dysfunctional leadership team (led by a family member) with no strategic vision. Nothing ever gets accomplished because the management team changes direction constantly. This division routinely hires very bright people and fires them in 6 - 12 months when the annual business reviews come up and senior management needs scapegoats.

Pros

Fairly young and progressive culture where things can get done fairly quickly without a lot of red tape. Open office environment makes it a more fun place to work. Company makes money and has good compensation. Flexible on work location.

Cons

Hmmm, actually I can't really think of many negatives. I mean no company is perfect and they all have their flaws, but nothing that stands out to me. They do stretch their people a little thin.
