Pros

If you're talented, you'll do well and rise through the ranks with only a bit of luck.

Cons

You'll have to fight the inefficiencies entrenched after decades of the company being single-product focused.

Few Decent Leaders Left

Pros

A very good place to work until 2008 and has been downhill since! A good starting place for new graduates before moving on to other companies where advancement opportunities would be available.

Cons

In February after 26 years, I along with many others, were more than ready to leave such a negative atmosphere. Self-centered leaders are unfortunately the majority, bonuses & awards are kept among themselves because those who were “normal” kind and caring leaders had their positions eliminated. Sad, very sad that such a local, once excellent employer has sunk so low. No work/life balance for the few good colleagues left trying to hold on until the inevitable happens — complete collapse or sold off piece-by-piece.
