Vantaggi
They have a solid mission that has held up for over 100 years.
Svantaggi
They put on a VERY good ’show’ of appearances as a forward paced organization however once you’re in and I mean like day one, you realize how horribly disorganized the entire organization is. I was shocked at the lack of accountability for mismanagement of people, processes, and business finances. Company invested substantially in office remodeling and new Chicago Loop office in excess to a level of irresistible financial spending. If you want to step back in time 20 years for a retro technology experience, this is the place! Systems are so outdated that it is like going back in time when things took months to get completed or fixed. That’s their normal here and they (many with 15-30 year tenure) seem to be okay with it. Complacency is a common employee performance description. They, seem to be okay with that also. Upper management and executives are embarrassingly inexperienced in their roles. Also a big facade on the diversity front. Female CEO and that’s about it! Don’t get fooled by the facade. Pass this one up, it is not a career growth opportunity.
