Pros

Great benefits, focus on people development, organizational mobility.

Cons

While management would like to think that there is a strategy (SFP), it is certainly not the case at this point in time. Decision making at the top seems to be very short sighted, without accounting for the industry landscape and where the organization needs to be in 6-12 months from now to effectively tackle future business. While the industry is starting to see signs of recovery, the organization is being asked to do more with less. Which at the surface, seems fair, being that the business is going through challenging times. That said, these challenges come from bad decision making over the last few years by new leaders with no knowledge of the legacy businesses. Post Covid - there seems to be a disconnect between upper management's expectations (based on pre-covid environment) and the reality of today. Employees find themselves doing more to keep projects afloat, without the resources to properly support all aspects of their jobs. Additionally, the levels of bureaucracy established under the new UTC regimes have made decision making extremely challenging for mid-level managers.
