Strong leadership with a no nonsense style.

Business Outlook

Pros

Experience in a multi-national employer. Possibilities to work in other countries and gain experience in a multi-cultural environment. Knowledge base is huge and if you look into the organization, you can find a lot...you just need to persistently search. The communication is very good and the people on the field are very open and honest in their feedback and support.

Cons

Opportunities to be promoted. Not a meritocratic organization....political advancements have been done leaving some very good people aside and despondent. They need to focus much more on performance as opposed to what looks good. People need to be held more accountable and the performance management process needs improvement.

Not Thrilled, but not totally dissatified either,

Business Outlook

Pros

There are benefits working for a divsion of a large company such as a mature and well rounded compensation package. From a day to day perspective there are many tools to use and many key approaches and decisions have established guidlines. Although limited, there are opportunities for advancement.

Cons

From my experience there is a fairly large disconnect from Sr. management expectation and reality in terms of divsion capability. When this disconenct rears it's head the first response is for everyone to work harder not smarter. Most of the folks in my divsion have little to no faith in the leadership decisions and are concerend over the lack of transparency of Sr management which has a negative impact on the morale and working environment. The compensation is on the low end of the scale.
