Pros

You can do very well in this company through individual performance going above and beyond expectations, so long as you are good at promoting yourself.

Cons

Mismatch and misuse of MBM vs reality. Claims to be advantaged due to the management philosophy and focus on innovation, but not sure that they really outperform their competition, either because the philosophy does not provide a real advantage or lack of execution according to the philosophy. Most likely the latter. Too much emphasis on financial models vs. the value that people can create, leading to people not feeling valued.

Pros

Schedule, flexibility, pay, co- workers, relationships

Cons

No COLA, annual reviews pushed back, comp reviews consistently pushed back even further. Non value added meetings & ‘fluff’ with Koch book reading requirements (which directly conflict in the respect philosophy when it comes to comp reviews), no consistency in business units- ie. Moving from one to another group a vast difference in how they treat/respect employees
