Pros

Mostly good staff to work with, dedicated. Company able to make money through Lean manufacturing

Cons

Sr. Management making decisions without knowing the data.... will promote the "Golden Child" who has a Power Point depth of subject matter knowledge. Often not understanding 2nd and 3rd order of effects resulting from decisions made (gee, maybe we shouldn't have done that--- didn't expect THAT to happen).

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
