Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent technical support through analytical instrumentation Innovation always promoted Continuous improvement

Cons

Massive turnover expected. Resources (human and machine) pushed to the limit. When this occurred, no attempt to increase resource was made. This often meant individuals were overworked.

error avoiding, low (if no) achievement, pessimist culture

Business Outlook

Pros

-mostly old-school small and single offices are a perfect place to lean back and do whatever you like (e.g. work out strategies to get rid of your office rivals), just do not expect meaningful positive work-related surprises during your day -supposedly market pay, but surprisingly hardly any local employees

Cons

-negative, risk & error avoiding, uncooporative culture -nothing to achieve here, zero real-term growth creates few, if not zero opporunities for people who are not part of the established networks

Business Outlook

Pros

Good products, good brand, very friendly environment with lots of knowledge. Teach so many to their employee.

Cons

There are too many procedures, too many obstacles to achieve something good, no opportunities to grow, no proper training, no career plan, no transparency from the management and no justice in terms of compensation and promotion.
