Great people, Great culture, Opportunity to grow
Pros
Team Commitment - with few exceptions, team members take great ownership and personal responsibility for their contributions. Open Culture - Opportunities and issues alike are addressed openly and constructively and are handled as a learning opportunity for team member growth. Access - Top management and functional leaders are all very accessible and engaged in key initiatives. Growth Potential - Though this hinges upon earning the opportunity and support of senior management, there are tremendous opportunities to grow professionally within this organization.
Cons
Slow Moving - SNA (or Nature's Way) are quite conservative, deliberate, and thus very slow to act. This can get frustrating for the extremely driven individuals, and can lead to missed opportunities due to a lack of agility. Talent Upgrade by Replacement - More often than in the past, management is electing to increase capabilities through new hires and outside recruitment rather than creating a means of enriching their current talent pool or potential. This can lead to one-sided and unsustainable value creation in favor of the company. Seems a bit old fashioned to me, but things change and so could this.
