      Pros

      Money, which they want you to not make anymore!

      Cons

      Lay offs & they want 40% pay cuts to call you back & they want to break our labor contract that has 3 yrs left on it! Greed at it's finest from a Co. that's extremely profitable, but it's NEVER ENOUGH!

      Second Level Management

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Empowerment in your position, was not reserved for training period. Management was hands on and motivated greater aspiration than current position. It was a team atmosphere, we fail together and we succeed together.

      Cons

      Because they projected and encouraged great aspirations from the janitorial to the CEO, there was great tune-over in management, because of promotions in stead of pay raises. As soon you are settled into how one manager operates, another is on the way.

      BIG Company Pros and Cons

      Senior engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits, Health Care, on site LPN saves trips to the doctor for small stuff, on Site Cafeteria with good food, and easy for Management to dole out free lunches or such for special projects or events. Education, regularly bringing in experts to teach or mentor on things. Timely industry relevant Books. Gym, on site free sport equipment to use, bikes, kayaks, camping gear, great perk.

      Cons

      Big company bureaucracy, red tape, politics, buddy systems, egos, too many on line training courses, having to go excessively out of your way to prove your worth during the year and at review time. At a company like GE, it is not good enough to put in a fair days work for a fair days pay which ultimately affects your personal life and quality of life. I've come think big companies and "economy of scale" is a bad thing. It shouldn't be such that if a global company has an issue with a division, it can put a whole town out on the street looking for work. Better to have more companies, and smaller companies.
