Could do better, but better than most.

Internal support

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Many opportunities for personal growth, so long as you work with the system. The make a good product that you can be proud to sell, and they take care of their own after you put in the initial time. They are also quite an honest and down to earth company - everyone employed just wants to do the right thing. There aren't many rampaging egos.

Cons

The cronyism. The lack of a long term vision. The senior staff remain out of touch of the field due to a strict chain of command infrastructure. There is also a lack of courage to strive for greatness, and a lack of leadership in shaping strategies for the brand in the future. It feels like we live quarter to quarter and make knee jerk reactions monthly.
