Business Outlook

Pros

Fast moving, high responsibility, aging work force with opportunity for younger professionals. In addition, the company benefits and concentration of treating the employee well far exceed my other past employers.

Cons

A strong German company that still values German employees over Americans and PhDs dominate the management. If you don not have the above listed attributes, your advancement will be limited.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Reasonable benefits and good research products. A good emphasis from the CEO (Dekkers) to reduce bureaucracy and simplify complex challenges.

Cons

Top heavy management who sometimes don't know much about how the work gets done in the field due to no hands on experience. Middle management not walking the talk of the CEO and lacking in flexibility to help employees grow.
