      Pros

      Kodak has a recognizable brand Kodak invented digital camera Kodak pioneer in OLED Kodak pioneer in image intelligence Kodak appreciates diversity in the workforce

      Cons

      Kodak is extremely political. People are promoted based on who they know versus what they know. Kodak is struggling to survive. With layoffs scheduled for next year its questionable whats left. Kodak can't seem to take a good product to market. They have great ideas, and great talent to get it done but the execution is killed in endless meetings. Groups don't communicate

      Pros

      Very smart people at the worker level, good family atmosphere, exciting product development, excellent benefits and salary, diverse job opportunities available, lower level employees treat each other well

      Cons

      Incompetent senior management, management blames "employee culture" for their mistakes, bias against long term employess, paranoid and fear filled environment from continual layoffs, can be very depressing place to work

      It's like tending a dying relative

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      People are generally personable with modest egos. Most have spent a career there and have few ambitions beyond EK. Because so many experienced people have left the company, there is lots of opportunity for those with little experience to have surprising influence in a company with a worldwide brand presence and global market.

      Cons

      There is no hope for the future. Most employees are either (i) long-timers hoping to survive a few more years until they are eligible for retirement or (ii) recent arrivals looking to make a name and a few bucks before moving on to something better. Many new hires are there only because their spouse moved to the area for a real good opportunity, and the Kodak opportunity was available for the trailing spouse. There are no new hires who have any realistic hopes of building a company that will still be standing in a decade. So the general attitude is depressed. Even the halls are dark, as the company has removed half of the light bulbs to save energy - a constant, visible sign of the gradual decline of this once proud institution.
