Vantaggi
The only pro is the good people that still remain in spite of the massive layoffs. Also if you are a white male you have a career track. Anyone else--not so much.
Svantaggi
Poorly managed at all levels. The subsidiary companies gobbled up by the parent corporation are seeing their thriving companies slowly be strangled to death. Morale is at an all-time low after another round of massive layoffs. In this day and age, you wouldn't think a pronounced glass ceiling could thrive--but at Answers that is absolutely the case. Women and minorities are not only not promoted into upper management, those that WERE in upper management prior to acquisition lose their jobs. It is an old boys network to be sure--with one weird exception: most of the "boys" are relatively young and you would think/hope they would not run a company this way.
