Business Outlook
Pros
Pockets of good people, intelligent and hard-working. Tight control of expenses. Excellent technologies and strong expectations for future innovations.
Cons
HR department has too much influence. Lots of lip-service about valuing employees, but not much truth to it. Morale is low in some circles. Line managers are functionaries with no real management power, no budgets for example. Most innovation is non-organic: new companies are acquired but never absorbed. Leaders of acquired companies get sweetheart deals to lead organizations, existing organizations always readjusting to the new leadership.
