Enterprise strategy is destroying day-to-day business

Pros

Good benefits. Until the restructuring started, great management team and great colleagues to work with. If you're a college graduate, great opportunity because you'll get preferential treatment over everyone else--with no accountability.

Cons

Since restructuring started, most are uncertain if they will have a job in a month, even upper management. The environment is very untrusting, in fighting between departments and very frustrating to get day-to-day things accomplished because no one will make a decision. Every little thing has to be approved by several people. All authority has been removed from middle management.

Pros

Benefits are great. "Some" internal growth opportunity. If you're looking to work with historic technology, this is the division.

Cons

Management not responsive to employee suggestion. Disconnected from production floor. Internal growth limited. Upper management seems more intent on creating/finishing "projects" that have minimal impact on production. Looks good on paper, though. No investment in equipment or maintenance.
