      Business Outlook

      Pros

      big company benefits and the knowledge that many of the products that make it to market are some of the best in the industry.

      Cons

      They went from being a leader in the 90s and early 2000 to completely and utterly destroying the work environment after the merger in 2010. Needless to say there's nothing left of what was once a great company and life is much like that of any drone worker in a bee hive.
