Pros

Great colleagues with long time experience. Good to very good compensation and reasonable benefits for the industry.

Cons

Current senior management has some ambitious plans, but there aren't enough people below them to execute effectively. Employees are pulled in too many directions trying to satisfy the whims of management that change too often. Recently, senior management has been brought in from the outside, so there is a large disconnect with their teams.

I am pleased to hear that you have a strong workgroup and are happy with your compensation and benefits. I would recommend having a conversation with your HR person to voice your concerns. I appreciate your candid input.

Pros

Great people in field and customer facing positions. Vast knowledge base of applications and instrumentation.

Cons

Very poor executive leadership- don't want to spend money on marketing, promotion of instrumentation, or relevant customer applications. Most do not know industry. Wonder why sales are decreasing.
