Business Outlook

Pros

Co-workers are intelligent and engaging. Many talented and smart people here.

Cons

Employees - most talented employees are underutilized or just overworked, and greatly unappreciated. You can get pigeon holed quickly by many managers. Level 5 management - a joke. Same people, different management roles year after year, its like a giant pool of nepotistic dna with line level management. Upper management - out of touch with reality. Couldn't be further removed from it than they are, almost like they have no original ideas and can only turn and run in the same direction other companies do - trend based management.
