Pros

Benefits and rank and file people are great. Leadership is good at executive level but VP level is unmonitored and unchecked

Cons

Backorders are a constant challenge which undermines ability to meet customer needs w confidence and impenetrable boys network which allows bullying and verbal abuse.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
