Pros
CPG had a worldwide presence in distributed power generation equipment, and strong technical and sales teams.
Cons
Various regional power generation companies were purchased by the corporate parent, who imposed many unrelated processes and unknowledgeable managers onto those businesses. The results are speaking for themselves with loss of market share, retrenchment and layoffs. Corporate is consolidating former regional elements into corporate HQ, which will likely result in further erosion. This is a shame as the corporation is well known and respected for it's original line of business, diesel automotive engines.
