Pros

Great onsite employees and the ingredients for some substantial successes

Cons

Atlanta second guesses every move taken locally even when all thruput targets are being well exceeded and variances exceeded $5.6M when the division lost $6,5M during the same period. Dozens of "helpers" are quick to take credit for successes even though they never appeared on-site even though they had no clue as to the product lines, equipment capabilities/shortcomings or Customer expectations. To not support this approach from afar is to be labeled a non-supporter of MBM and will jeopardize your job. We measured MBM adherence but initially had no budget, no metrics and little willingness to achieve anything. Any - Do not even ting about voicing respective challenges less you be branded. Get any signing bonuses paid up front or never see it as I was promised a $20K sign-on bonus to join the Team -I got the results just no bonus - A real mistake!

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
