Pros

Great industry and company heritage. Company is staffed with very talented people who live for the prestige to do all they can to deliver great products and continue the legacy of a great American brand.

Cons

Company is transitioning from management that had passion for the brand and its legacy in an intimate industry, to capital investment firms capitalizing on financial returns as quickly as possible. There is little to no vision expressed to the work force from senior management, which leaves most employees "out of the loop" and with little to no connection to deliver their best efforts for the company. So many great,talented people are looking for a way out.

Pros

- super chill enviroment - great collegues - huge rock and roll culture - not super demanding depending on yearly projects - lots of fun activities year-round - great place to start your career; use it as a launchpad

Cons

- poor leadership; truly, IDK where they get these leaders from - you wont get any help, expect to be thrown in the deep end - frontline workers complain a lot, makes it hard to implement things
