Downsizing in US

Pros

Pay, benefits, equities, 401k, pension, tuition reimbursement. Very good stewards of company resources. Overall nice people. If you work in an emerging market the sky is the limit.

Cons

Very political, people afraid to make decisions, less training available, not opening new locations and downsizing in US. Top heavy with upper management. Culture and values not "lived".

Pros

Good company, great products that improve quality of life, and good benefits. Overall good environment.

Cons

Company is going in the direction of more lean practices. Too lean since company split from Pharmaceutical division. 2013 and 2014 will be interesting. Not enough promoting from within or recognition of hard work. Little to no work life balance but company says they are a big promoter of this.
