CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Work-life balance is very well maintained and one of the primary cultural drivers at the company. Very intelligent colleagues in general, willing to step in and work on common projects and solutions.

Cons

Consensus-building culture can be taken too far, making decision-making difficult. Strategically, lost its way for the past couple of years.
