Pros

It's an iconic company and brand with a great heritage and a bright future. Amazing location in downtown Chicago and just announced moving to a brand new building next year, only two blocks from the current location. It's a company in transition and trying to leap forward from where it has been. Not everything is fixed or will be for a while but if you enjoy transformational work this is the place for you.

Cons

Because it is going through a transformation things are in flux and there is ambiguity at times. There's a culture the company is trying to move away from while keeping the best parts of it and defining a new one. It seems like the organization is really feeling the generational shift of boomers leaving the workforce and millennials entering it. It's not a bad thing, it just feels like you're living through a business school case study at times because there is so much change being driven across all facets of the organization.

Pros

Recognized brand and stable. Some good employees still remaining with loyalty to the company.

Cons

New Executive management is horrible. Head of Sales and Marketing does not know what he is doing and only likes to have "yes" people report to him. Head of HR has never held a position with this kind of responsibility and therefore lets others dictate how to make decisions for his group. Sadly this was a great place to work now its just a place to work. Many people are leaving because the moral is so poor and K + S and the CEO do not care.
