Pros

Really good co-workers, and everyone tries to work together to get it right. Data is king here. Lot of opportunities to develop

Cons

There are a lot of internal politics. There are a lot of meetings, and tons of constant compliance training, and proper resourcing is a constant issue.

Company with great potential

Pros

Good products and talent. Issues are dealt with by searching for a root cause rather than a scapegoat. Current implementation of DBS is on the right track - thoughtfully applied. Metrics provide visibility into how departments are doing early so that course corrections can be made.

Cons

Disfunction at the executive level is holding back this company. Too many decisions are made in conference rooms rather than working with those close to issue. Too many legacy products rather than focusing on those with the highest potential.
