Pros

Nice downtown area. Plenty of places to visit on your lunchtime. Plenty of restaurants with a wide variety of food choices.

Cons

Change can be good if handled properly. Unfortunately, this company did not handle change very well. Employees are not excited to go to work anymore - uneasy feeling about if and when they will be next on the layoff list.

Pros

Good name brand recognition Convienant downtown location in Chicago for corporate headquarters Solid work/life balance

Cons

Below market value for salary compensation and bonuses Many employees work in tunnel vision Outdated processes and systems. No crossfunctional teamwork. There is a "us against all other departments mentality" Poor communication with other departments on all projects on all levels. No desire for root cause analysis on issue resolution. Company culture is to bandaid the issue and then point fingers
