Business Outlook

Pros

Global good product range, global strength, good middle and lower level teams.

Cons

Poor Compliance across the company. management is interested in sale (Value suggest - manage for results). do wrong, give bribe, conflict of interest no problem. Manage to get EBIT. Functional silos and policy for person. ERP is made with huge flaws. Still those people are working in company. poor enforcement on code of conduct. Poisonous work culture.
