Pros

Some of the management that have been there awhile try to help develop people and the business. Previous leaders really believed in the team approach. The goal was to improve the work environment, quality of the product and output of manufacturing. Significant improvements were made.

Cons

New management came in and focus changed. To work here you now must be ready to kiss up to the right clique, otherwise you will be pushed aside. Gone is the overall teamwork, only the clique. Focus has change to production, production, production.
