Pros

Still a diversified industrial manufacturing company where you can pursuer career opportunities in a variety of markets

Cons

Management seems more focused on pursuing social causes instead of serving customers. Too many executive management appointments where the new executive is “Uniquely Qualified” for the role. This is code for “has no prior experience in the function or market”.

Pros

Good pay and decent benefits.

Cons

Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
