Vantaggi
Lots of very hard working, caring employees. Employees really pull together whenever there is a personal crisis of a coworker. Lots of institutional knowledge. Some departments still have the "small company" feel to them.
Svantaggi
Senior Management doesn't understand enough about the day-to-day operations. They think they get it because some came up through the ranks, but times have changed & they have not kept up. The right hand doesn't know what the left is doing. There doesn't seem to be anyone, at the top, who has a grasp on what is going on within the entire organization. They just seem to put out fires. No overall vision. Favoritism abounds. They keep certain staff members because they are well "liked" not because of their abilities. They promise new customers the world & then task the rank & file to make it happen when the resources are not available. Many employees are grossly overworked.
