      A once great company decimated by poor executive management

      Pros

      The mid to senior level long-time employees had a sense of personal and professional balance and took pride in the company's heritage.

      Cons

      The new ownership by Platinum Equity promoted a culture of suspicion and dissension associated with poor planning and knee-jerk overcompensation for market conditions.

      Pros

      Competitive pay. Middle managers are very fair. If you do your job, no one is breathing down your neck. Yeah.

      Cons

      Platinum Equity is ruining a once proud company. They are making decisions that are in the best interest of their exit strategy, rather than in the best interests in the future of the company.
