Business Outlook

Pros

Great facilities and good benefits.

Cons

Not enough employees for work demands placed. Inflexible management that continually demands more while micromanaging work. Mid-level management is stuck trying to meet unrealistic expectations with limited staff - the exodus of employees making the problem even worse. Executives are more concerned with their careers and standing than coaching and developing their own staff. Being connected to the "boys club" is more important than merit for advancement. Systems are woefully out of date and do not support hybrid or collaborative work environment.

Pros

Awesome co-workers. dedicated, great values, middle management good. Hard work, results and constant flow of new challenges. Family like teams who really care.

Cons

Announcement last week from the top that if any level of remote works is important to you, this is not the place for you. Many people looking to leave. We all see the end of a great company. Morale at its all time lowest when discussing with co-workers and people across the organizations. Insults, disrespect, zero appreciation for our dedication. Such a shame
