Vantaggi
I may be bias, as I came from a very nontransparent company, but since coming to Cook, I have been amazed at their transparency regarding company business and internal personnel issues. I have never been at a company who takes Employee Engagement/Satisfaction Surveys and ACTUALLY goes over the results (positives and negatives) and explains exactly HOW they will fix things and actually DO. It's one thing to say you're going to do something [as a company] but to actually follow through in a timely manner is next level. I've talked personally with several global executive leaders and they remember my name...I'm not even a manager! But the company is just an all around great company to work for.
Svantaggi
I think compensation and work-life flexibility could be improved on the manufacturing [line/factory] side. But that is not my area, so this may already be in the works.
