      Pros

      Franklin Lakes campus is a great work environment.

      Cons

      Stable with change coming very slowly. In terms of strategic change, not as rapid and dynamic as I would like.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Benefits are pretty good - medical coverage is fairly good, and there's a pension plan. * Stable job - it's almost unlikely that you'll get laid off or fired unless you do something outrageous. * People are usually pretty nice. * Holiday parties are pretty fun.

      Cons

      * Benefits are too good - the pension is a curse. This allows incompetence to fester, thereby slowing everyone down. * People are so unusually nice, that everything turns into a passive aggressive war. The politics is unbelievable - I don't think I've ever gotten a straight answer out of anyone. Every time an executive decision is made, I only hear objections through gossip. * Where's the innovation? There's quite a lot of boast about innovating new products, but it always ends at that. Looking at the last few products released, they're just old products repackaged. * Where's HR? HR has no presence in this organization, and do nothing with personnel escalations.
