Pros

Profitable product lines with a long cycle. Large company with locations and customers around the world. Generally well engineered products.

Cons

Leadership turns over every few years. New CEO's/Presidents come in and all they want to do is reorganize and reduce headcount. Very demoralizing, frustrating, and distracting. Company is so caught up in management by objective that there is no long term focus on improving processes and systems, instead, how do we sabotage the process in order to achieve some short term target.

Working with great people makes such a difference day to day – it's good to hear that's been a real part of your experience. We hear you on internal progression – career growth can feel different for everyone, and we know we've still got work to do to make development paths clearer. Feedback like yours really helps us move in the right direction.

Thanks for sharing, sounds like you’ve had some great people around you – that kind of support makes a huge difference. It’s also encouraging to hear the company direction is coming through as a positive. Location is a personal factor, and we appreciate you sharing that as part of your overall experience.
