Business Outlook

Pros

As a large diverse organization there are opportunities to change careers and even industries. If you are open to moving.

Cons

The opportunities are limited within each site. They have not assimilated the numerous acquisitions. There are a lot of conflicting corporate cultures. Very little synergy, or co-operative project efforts between plants. Every location acts as a separate company. New products are customer driven. IE They are not innovative just reactive. This is less risky but they completely avoid the chance to do something new and make use of their diverse product and manufacturing capabilities. Don't expect any new products...ever.
