Pros

Benefits are very good for a company this size

Cons

Team is run based on last minute requests and on a lot of meetings to join leaving little time for your usual work. Director likes to devise “innovative” ways to get sales to give more information but instead it translates to chaotic management and more stress for demand planners. There are a lot of stress placed on leads for not getting their teams to get to unrealistic goals with an unsupportive sales team. There are hardly any consistent reviews for employees but it’s not unusual for employees themselves in PIPs. Overall I would say it’s a chaotic management style in this team. Pay hits industry average but not much more. Additionally there is an overemphasis on being in the office in this company because they recently invested millions in renovations so they track your badge swipes. There are really no company wide events to get people more unified other than a quarterly CEO town hall that managers force everyone to attend.

Pros

The company has strong business sense. When they smell an opportunity, they will fight to win the business, and they hunt for high profit margin projects. This ensures that the business is strong and lesser chances of retrenchment. It is a Koch company and Koch has strong corporate philosophy called Principles Based Management (PBM).

Cons

Nobody follows PBM, or management takes the short cut. This results in a lot of complications. 1) Too much challenging, too little doing on new technical areas resulting in declining competitive edge. 2) Everything is only a framework and suggestions. This leads to no definite way of execution. Too many discussions in a loop to decipher the "Frameworks". 3) Bonus and incentives are not guaranteed every year. Management undermines the work and says that it is within your salary. 4) No long-term planning because too focused on the immediate voice of customer.
