Pros
Salary was good, paid a decent signing bonus
Cons
Executive Management can't get out of their own way. - One night, after having a few drinks after dinner, one VP told our group that he had decided not to hire the woman who was substantially more qualified than the man he had hired for a recent position because she "reminded him of his mom" and that he didn't want to have to work with his mom. - Management would always talk about the "Guiding Principles" that they strictly follow when making every decision. However the minute that things weren't going smoothly they'd openly say that for the time being, we were going to abandon the "Focus on the Customer" guiding principle and do what was best for us, regardless of how it hurt the customer. - Management would buy the cheapest molding machines possible and then shut down customers with little to no notice to do maintenance that was months/years overdue. They'd then use the cheapest Chinese knockoff parts and the machines would have the exact same issues shortly thereafter. - Management only wants people to tell them that they're right. If your project resulted in determining that the idea that an executive was pushing wasn't going to be successful, they'd just reassign the project to someone else who would give them the answer they wanted. - Managment would always ask what people needed to be more successful, and then would ignore it completely. - I was with a group who was told we needed to be in the office in Atlanta with just over a week notice (which meant that I had to cut my family vacation short). We spent two days in the office where day one the VP spent the entire first day introducing us to people and then telling us why he hated that person or why that person was incompetent. The second day was spent "brainstorming". We made a long list of tasks and projects that we felt would be helpful to hit our goals. Once we left the building that list was never mentioned again.
