Pros

High pay working in anything sales related (or management of course). No problem find a parking space. Gym is never crowded. No lines at cafe.

Cons

Text book 1980's Jack Welch style corporation. Everything is about reducing costs and paying management more. Notable anti-US bias. Nothing even minimally progressive about this place (in the US anyway). No teamwork, everyone is a silo to make layoffs easy as possible.

Business Outlook

Pros

The people you work with will be the best asset. Working in the Midwest, the people become like family and really care about each other. I can speak for other geos. Pay is good and benefits are great.

Cons

Leadership has no appreciation for talent. Teams are pitted against each other. The "culture" is constantly talked about but at the end of the day, leadership will sell their own grandparent for shareholders. Take note, they are no less slimy and elitist than any other publicly traded company, they just like to talk about the "culture" because they feel it keeps employees distracted from what is really going on. Layoffs are a constant and very real fear.
