Vantaggi
This is a follow-up to a prior review that I wrote about the time of a number of management and organizational changes. It took about 3 or 4 years, but the future is looking very bright and a lot of the rough spots are starting to smooth out. Pros include: work-life balance, challenging projects, great co-workers, broad portfolio of opportunities, top-notch QA/QC process, and a major attempt by management to open up career options for as many as possible. I feel like there has been a real conscious shift to understand what motivates people of all types. One other thing: they have undertaken a number of difficult change initiatives in IT, HR and business unit operations and have really stuck with them, and continuing to try to improve on them based on employee input. This seems much better than other places I have worked.
Svantaggi
Still a few long-term senior managers hanging on to jobs they should consider passing to younger folk. Disconnect between actual profit and utilization as a proxy for profit creates conflict at times.
