Vantaggi
The company weathered the recent global financial melt down with minimal budget cut backs and lay offs. While many in this industry either went bankrupt or were bought out it has maintained its highest possible financial ratings and untarnished reputation.
Svantaggi
Internal recognition and advancement is solely based on who you are aligned with in middle management and associated political considerations. Management holds all of the clout, representation and support by Human Resources for employee concerns is almost non-existent. The sole objective of Middle Management is to grow the size of their empire (the number of employees who report to them) and the size of the budget they control. Employee to management communication is nearly non-existent.
