We have made recent changes to realign the company to address the up-skill that you mention in your cons. We are encouraged by the changes we have made in the structure. Also, keep in mind that each manager comes with a unique set of skills and our goal was to align the set of skills with the need of the business.

Pros

- Stability after acquisition (the risk of going bust is minimal). - Selective product offerings with good focus (a cons as well). - Competitive Compensation. - Nice colleagues. - Overall positive culture. - Good work/life balance. - Lots of knowledge transfer and training.

Cons

- Siloed responsibilities and territorial groups. - Having strong focus on certain aspects leave certain areas weak compared to competitors. - Competitors are catching up on the S of SWOT analysis while we are lagging behind on the W. - Flawed cross-functional collaboration which is worsened by applying the Waterfall model hammer to almost everything. - Top-down management making things sluggish and occasionally questionable. - Management trying to paint a rosier picture rather than looking at reality, which does not help with the lack of sense of urgency.
