Pros

The talent is the smartest and best in the industry. Quad has market leadership in select verticals. A handful of executives are trying to do the right thing (but their is a culture of fear within the management team to not make waves).

Cons

Executive team is "old-boys club" who doesn't groom young talent and are divesting / liquidating the company in the form of dividends and write-offs. Each sales division competes with one another. Production goals compete with sales goals. Executive management is out of touch with their employees and their clients (and worse, they think that they are connected with their clients and employees). Corporate culture (which used to be very strong many years ago) is at an all time low.
