Pros

Good technology which was developed many years ago by people who are now gone from the company.

Cons

Management lacks direction and does not develop the staff. A remaining cadre of workers keep their heads low and hope for the best.

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.
