Pros

Some great people and a brand with a lot of potential.

Cons

People are not valued. Workload is high and recognition is low. Germany makes all of the major decisions and many are not right for the US market, but the US team is blamed when sales drop. Management is much more concerned about finding someone to blame instead of trying to fix problems or make things better. I could go on, but you get the idea...
