Pros

THERE WILL ALWAYS BE A NEED FOR SALT. WORK FOR ANY ONE OF THE MANY UNIONS, AND YOU'LL HAVE A JOB FOR LIFE AS LONG AS YOU PUT IN AN HONEST DAY'S WORK.

Cons

I do not recommend CMP for anyone NOT protected by any of the Unions. This company has lost it's "Compass" (pun intended). With the new regime, we've lost Leadership and we've lost direction. Sure, they can claim ''we're spending money hand over fist on Magellan! [CMP's attempt at modernizing] but it's a top-heavy, poorly implemented mess that's going to turn out poorly. CMP is already in a head-cutting mood, cutting people with institutional and intuitive knowledge and replacing them with "Yes Men" who don't understand the business. This company has tried and failed on Employee engagement; First it was Gallup, then it was "Keeping he people"....then it's another unconventional "Survey" that nobody got to see the data on. Lastly; people are no longer important. People are now assets like a tool or piece of equipment; they can and will be discarded for reasons entirely subjective. At one time, CMP cared about it's people. No Longer. Now it's a system built upon nepotism.
