      Honest Opinion

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Certainly a lot of good hard working people. Most are friendly and willing to help out to train and assist even outside their functional area. If you want to work long hours each week they will promote you though know with each promotion the responsibility and commitment get worse.

      Cons

      Work life balance, salaries are lower than market, not clear goals - they pay lip service to goals though it is all about the short term numbers and bottom line at the expense of long term goals that can improve the business in the long run. Prime example is how they handled the implementation of their new computer system.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Advancement opportunity OK if willing to work lots of hours and management likes you Lots of good people at middle to lower levels

      Cons

      Too much office politics at senior management level Very little recognition by senior management Inconsistent with treatment of departments and employees Compensation package below average. Promote the bonus which in not consistent and capped Talk about team effort but evaluation is all about individual and department accomplishments. No reward for helping other employees or departments - actually works to disadvantage because it takes time away what you could accomplish for yourself, which is all that is rewarded Imbalance in work/life ratio Too heavy VP to employee ratio Use employees to take everything out of them, and then will figure out a way to let them go when done with them Cannot trust senior management
