Pros
Good company reputation in the Twin Cities Pockets of good and great managers Strong history of growth by acquisitions Ability to flex across functional areas Was a great company at one point - Lost our way!
Cons
Lack of leadership at business units - Senior leadership not holding business functional leaders accountable Senior leadership's lack of talent development and lack of talent bench across all functions Minimal leadership change outside of business unit Presidents - need to bring "new thinking" in functional areas - many leaders in same roles for 5+ years and have not added any shareholder value to the organization Senior leaders lack of communication Constant focus on short term earnings with constant restructuring environment Leaders in place at highest levels that have no management experience and provide no development to teams - spreads a toxic workplace throughout businesses HR needs to be more engaged with the environment at all levels and hold managers accountable
