Pros

When I started the availability of training was outstanding and they were more than willing to send me to any training class that would benefit the local area.

Cons

The mentality of both the company and the upper management has changed for the worse. Training is no longer readily available on new products the management team preaches that this is the year to take care of the customers when their actions state the exact opposite. The company has made so many cuts that employees are forced to finish the job on their own time without pay. This company also does not promote from within very frequently and when they do it is not always the best decision.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
