Pros

Training given to site supervisors and managers is plentiful - Avery is good about providing training resources to develop their in-house talent.

Cons

stubbornly stick to goal metrics, with little thought of the plans and resources needed to hit the targets. Targets are set by division mgmt [usually nice round numbers - meaning little/no statistical work used to generate the target value] - then indiv sites are left to their own devices on how to hit the number, no divisional support given - other than admonishment to try harder - not helpful!
