Pros

Terrible toxic culture. Employees are powerless against good ole boys club. Almost every function is riddled with the wrong people in the wrong roles. Worse, the GE “bottom 10%”has taken over this year and only added to the already horrific culture. Very few remaining great people (most have bailed) and talent fighting old regime. Crazy politics and intolerable, incapable management. The place is a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Cons

Power struggles and bullies. No systems or process. If you’re thinking about taking a role here, run away. I think I get stupider every day. Place is a disaster.

Pros

Used to be a wonderful place to work before being bought out.

Cons

There is no feeling of teamwork anymore. Management could be quite nasty and favoritism ran high. New manager seemed to like running things like it was a third world country.
