Business outlook
Pros
Somewhat stable as a fairly large company. Layoffs have happened, but typically those laid off have a good bit of warning that it's a potential in their business unit, and personally get 60-days' notice. During the 60 days, receive preferential treatment and assisstance in pursuing other jobs internally.
Cons
Smal profit potential in industry leads to constant expense focus - cutting costs eventually ends up at cutting people. While some of the philosophies, mission, vision, etc. preached from the top sound good, it only takes one bozo somewhere in the senior management chain to stop the actual benefits within his/her span of control.
