Pros

The company is strong in several areas of Environment and Health They have a wide portfolio spanning a broad set of sectors in both areas OneSource is innovative and a potential asset

Cons

Salaries are low in general, especially in the Boston area Very much focused on the bottom line Reactive to quarterly performance You have to wonder if they are spread too thin across somewhat disparate areas and seeing limited synergies across sectors. would a break up (as suggested by several analysts) make more sense at this time?

Pros

Great people in field and customer facing positions. Vast knowledge base of applications and instrumentation.

Cons

Very poor executive leadership- don't want to spend money on marketing, promotion of instrumentation, or relevant customer applications. Most do not know industry. Wonder why sales are decreasing.
