Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation, work life balance, Great Product Line, Lagacy.

Cons

Everything expect above....Middle level management & most of the directors are dictators. They have revengeful atitude, If you say "no" or express a diff. opinion they well screw you to the end of earth. Highly regessive mindset. No Value for people who want to make a change, infact they are targetted so that they have to move out. No Vision. No policies. No defined career path. Degrading US & German Couterparts. If you resign they will not even talk & ask why are u leaving even after 3 yrs of service. 12 Yrs exp. people are directors...they don't even know 'M' of management...highly eccentric.....very arrogant...There basic are ZERO.
