Business Outlook
Pros
Access to cutting edge technology and a leader in its industry. Increasingly becoming a global company with non-US revenues growing strongly. Flexible working environment and provides a good work/life balance particularly for parents.
Cons
A very highly centralised company. Decision making tends to occur in Minneapolis to address local issues and then get pushed out globally with little input from other regions in the US or globally. A very top down company that is poor at explaining its strategy to lower levels of management. There is very little delegation in decision making, budget setting and planning which is strange for a company so top heavy with managers.
