Business Outlook

Pros

- Great co-workers - really bright people that know their stuff - Becoming overly bureaucratic in some departments - Becoming a hugely cost containment type environment

Cons

- Sometimes it takes forever to reach decisions - Increasing pressure for doing your job with less - Poor communications from the the higher-ups on where they see the company going, especially given the public status of the company - Company seems to be stuggling to find the next thing where it can continue to perform at the great levels of the past.
