Pros

German-owned but most of the company still operates as a standalone, American-owned company due its strong history before the acquisition. The company is also performing strong so the perks keep rolling in and rarely is there a need to "sweat" on the job.

Cons

The acquisition occurred nearly 20 years ago and the growing pains are still being felt. The company struggles with new strategies and usually abandons one before it can make any strides. Personal growth is typically stagnate as one can most always feel as if opportunities given are solely in the best interest of the company.
