Pros

Financial Stability Brand recognition Focused vision Talented leadership economic thinking not from a human capital management Privately held Pay/Bonus structure Breadth of divisions = opportunities

Cons

No global presence If you are not a white young male previously with Koch limited opportunity for advancement Don't let those two leadership positions held by women fool you . Women and diverse candidates need not apply for senior roles.

Good in a pinch

Pros

The people were good to work with and there was a sense of community most of the time. Location was nice, close to mountains and small ag/farming community.

Cons

Management was promoted from within mostly but didn't have (in some cases) the technical background or education to back it up. They were heavy with experience (at the time). Long hours and an expectation to work overtime without any extra compensation (as a salaried employee).
