Pros

o HDS has only been stand-alone company since 2007... Still retains a very 'start-up' feel. o If you have a brain (and care a little), you can excel quickly here. o Much integration synergy (savings, effeciencies) opportunities still exist... but (for various reasons) have not yet been executed upon. o Generally, tenure here is long... very blue-collar company, with workers who remain in the industry for a very long time (both a pro & con, actually).

Cons

o GE leadership (at Corporate) often out-of-touch with branch-based distribution model... Too focused on short-term financials, and not enough on long-term business model viability. o Glass ceiling... If you're not closely connected to Senior Management... Limited senior level promotional opportunities o Integration challenges persist... Company struggling with 'One Team' identity... and ability to sell off business at drop of a hat. Series of fast acquisitions from 2005-2007 created a company, which is only loosely integrated at Corporate level. Individual business units operate independently. o Salesforce has no incentive to 'play nice' with other business units... We compete with ourselves for same customers, and job-level opportunities.
