Pros

We [used to] make the world's best audio equipment. Lot's of opportunity because people "just disappear" - never a word of thanks for all they've done, etc. They just disappear...

Cons

Since Sidney Harman left., the new regime seem to view the company as their personal cookie jar. Reading SEC reports shows the Executive Committee regularly exercises/sells every one of the considerable options they grant themselves. In the Infotainment division (where 5/6 of Harman's revenue is generated), Harman is no longer a technology company because that costs too much. Now our focus is on providing software services
