Not as good to its staff as it used to be.

Senior scientist

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of good people work there. Madison has good schools. There are good workout facilities in every building and flexibility in work schedules.

Cons

People are not promoted based on ability but on who they buddy up to so the company has some managers who have been promoted far beyond their abilities. Decisions are rarely based on what makes good business sense but are based on the pet project(s) of the day. Some departments are so short-staffed that it is hard to get anything done. There is a lot of politics at this company. Everyone is afraid that someone else will go to the CEO so no-one will take responsibility and make decisions.
