CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Caring people work here. There are some bad seeds but what company doesnt have them. Great health plan and other benefits. Most managers back up the employees.

Cons

Not all managers are on the same page and hard to get support from them. Several employees forgot the word "team" work and dont help out. The computer system for a computer store is out dated.
