      Corporate Quality Leadership lacks principles.

      Pros

      Some really great people on the Team. Donations of land for conservation. Close ties to Nashville Predators Hockey Team.

      Cons

      CQO utilizes stone age principles of management. Hired bully to “shape up” the Team. Fear based culture. Lack of character among key Leaders. Very high attrition. Losing key talent. Code of conduct is just words, and not enforced. Senior HR is too closely tied to CQO, and lacks principles.

      It's slowly getting better

      Pros

      For this area, the pay is great. They are increasing the amount of training they provide to employees, and have teamed up with some excellent partners to ensure the training is more relevant. There is always some kind of improvement or expansion in the works. If you love a challenge, you'll like working here. There are plenty of opportunities for overtime as well. The rotating schedule offers a lot of time off. Very little chance of ever getting laid off... this company has been around forever and isn't going anywhere.

      Cons

      A lot of the equipment is very old, and in many cases parts can't be found. Drawings or other technical information is outdated and hard to sort through. There aren't spare parts for a lot of the newer equipment. You need to REALLY love this kind of work, because you will be climbing, crawling, contorting your body, and getting very dirty in the process. The rotating schedule (12 hour shifts, switching from days to nights) is difficult. If you're the type that misses work a lot, this company will not be a good fit for you. The attendance policy is very strict.
