      Great company - currently in organizational flux

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Several different business units with multiple divisional verticals in each, so many opportunities to explore different technologies / markets / product families * Terrific people * Great salary and benefits

      Cons

      * Large matrixed organization can be unwieldy to navigate * In middle of initiative to streamline org structures & role definitions to create consistency across business units and functions -- many occurrences of the concept of the new orgs / roles not working in practice and/or not enough headcount allocated to some of the new roles...so frustration in some business pillars with the new approach * Recently eliminated ~3K positions, so many folks juggling much heavier loads
