Vantaggi
* Brand recognition in certain industry sectors * Some of the smartest minds work in some of the divisions (outside of UL technology division) * Some of the mid level managers and lower level staff are fantastic and are probably the smartest and hardest workers I have seen.
Svantaggi
* The business unit is lead by a set of executives and senior managers who do not have experience leading or managing businesses. * This unit is basically a part of the UL business focused on technology, a mish-mash together through acquisitions. If you want to know how not to integrate your acquisitions, UL EHSS would be your stand out example. * Business partners are treated as if they are easily replaceable. Due to senior management's inexperience and inadequate structure (as a result of the poor integration) leads to many a business partner feeling like they got a raw deal. * The inexperience of the senior management also leads to challenges for internal mid managers who want to do the right thing. * Limited to no long term planning.
