Pros
The benefits were solid, the people are good and the products are generally of high quality. It is a great place to gain experience in the industry and it looks great on a resume when seeking your next opportunity.
Cons
Where to start? There is little to no growth opportunity within the Division. The division has not been replacing employees who have left which has resulted in people taking on many extra duties with no recognition. In one functional area, the department has last 14 employees in the past 6 months with no new hires and no plan to replace the personnel who left. Attrition is huge within the past year. Most people try to do a good job, but the bureaucratic hurdles are sometimes so challenging and cumbersome that it wears people down. There is a large level of middle management without enough workers to get things accomplished and Executive Management is too far removed from the daily operations to understand what is going on. The morale is horrible and people will continue to leave if things do not start changing. There is huge favoritism that goes on within the entire organization. Management manages to meet numbers to look good, rather than making the hard decisions that need to be made. No-one wants to cause any commotion and raise the issues to management.
