An Executive blinded by themselves

Pros

There are many, just not feeling them right now. This latest restructure has been a woefully executed process. Change happens, it's often not fun but necessary. How you implement change is a leadership litmus test. A test this CEO and executive have failed.

Cons

No bottom line growth in years under the leadership of an exec and BG exec management who've contentedly protected their own interests while failing to support, understand or capitalize on growth outside of their pet focus areas. Leading to more restructuring...opportunity to make impactful change....but no.... different structure, same people, new titles, appointing the same buddies to roles around them. If these people failed to perform, lead and grow the business in their previous roles, why are they still tasked with this responsibility?

The people were great to work with and helped you grow and realize your potential based on where you wanted to go.

Cons

Communication amongst all of the divisions that worked together was lacking which sometimes made it hard to do your job.

Only Getting Worse

Pros

Not as many as there once was.

Cons

Many more than Pros. Was hopeful when the CEO Jacque took over that the company would migrate back to the way it was run under Ralph Peterson as Jacque knows the historical culture from the days when the employees were its biggest asset and were a main focus. Unfortunately, she seems to be continuing the mindset of the previous CEO Lee as an outsider that had no regard (only lip service) for its employees. He was able to talk the talk but not walk the walk. Main focus was growing the company stock value at 10+ percent per year at all costs while lining his pockets with big $$$.
