Vantaggi

People are generally friendly and helpful on a daily basis. If you are reasonably hard working and if you are sociable with your managers, you can really climb up. They want to encourage a long career if you want it also.

Svantaggi

Loads of politics determine if you have opportunities to grow or not at all levels. Advancement opportunities are easier to come by if we are white and young. Higher managers always support lower middle managers and never lower levels. Middle managers who get results have significant power. Retaliation is a reality in this private company if you cross the wrong manager. Be cautious. If you feel threatened by a manager, it's better to make your exit than to report it.

Vantaggi

Range of creative, scientific, business, supply chain and support jobs. Global experience and mobility opportunities (at mid to high level positions). Good health benefits compared to many other companies. Company is strong financially and growing financially (but opportunities are being filled by outside talent, not internally)

Svantaggi

Pervasive clique-oriented culture and sink-or-swim for those not in a protected group, both which play key roles in advancement opportunities. Perception and network matters more than individual results. Inequitable distribution of heads to sites in dire need. Poor HR environment for quality employee support, growth, and development. Burnout becoming very pervasive, with company asking for more-and-more. IS systems are cumbersome and poorly designed...creative more inefficiency instead of solving efficiency issues.
