It's OK, but could be better.

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are pretty good. Employees are great to work with.

Cons

No growth, pay is horrible (for non-engineering roles). Titles/promotions given for "who" you support, not for your skill level. Favoritism is obvious. No rewards, freebies, give aways for employees. If you reward your employees, you will find that they will work harder.

Good culture and teams, bad high management

Business Outlook

Pros

Always encouraging good teamwork. People work together well and solve problems. People are professional and kind to each other.

Cons

Top down management and high level management is very poor. Lack of leadership and made quite a lot of strategic mistakes. The worst part is: they are not accounted for their mistakes! Even with huge damages (> $1 Billion) due to their bad decisions, they are still around to pick up pay checks.

Good pay. Good working level people. Talented people in many facets. Decent work environment. Good training plans available.

Strategies always changing. Exec management caught up in politics and posturing. Previous failures not well reviewed so did not learn from mistakes.
