Pros

The President is awesome. Speaks to you when he sees you. Knows you by name. Not to busy to know who you are. Approach him and he will chat with you. Co-workers work hard, with little recognition. Good people.

Cons

Some managers are a joke. Some styles run employees away. You speak up about things and you have a big FAT target on your back. They push out those who do not agree with their style of management. Upper Management doesn't have a clue what's going on. If they simply talk to the employees without the managers I am sure they would be surprised. It's time to allow your employees to evaluate your managers and for upper management to listen to what the little guy or woman has to say. Clean house or lose good people and whole departments. Oh andthere is no work life balance. But hey that's just my opinion. Good Luck!

Pros

Great benefits and company culture, frequent opportunities to interface with senior leaders and executives.

Cons

Roles and responsibilities are demanding, complex organization to understand, and requires in-office days if you are in proximity to a regional hub.

Pros

Solid steady company, generally nice people and it can help people advance if they so choose.

Cons

Privately owned, so many decisions are made arbitrarily, not always having to be vetted properly. Globally, decisions would be made that would not be in the best interests of the US market. Also, if you're an internal employee, it could be difficult to be promoted/advance within the company. You get stuck with new duties, but no new titles/pay.
