      Aging Middle Management Stuck In Its Ways

      Pros

      The structure is in place for this to be a good employer, however middle management does "walk the walk".

      Cons

      Cattiness; personal agendas; rampant micromanagement; no room to grow, long-term employees are untouchable, despite their archaic ways and 1990s management styles.

      Pros

      local commute & was once a great company

      Cons

      Company really needs to evaluate egos as they get in the way of business objectives. So much turnover. New employees leaving and long term (25 yrs+) employees leaving. All because of treatment. It's sad really. I predict issues for this once great company. Lies & manipulation, very heavy workloads & execution style work ethic will all lead to problems. Not to mention the department restructuring, leadership changes & employee layoffs. Company will become archaic & full of narcissistic locals. Good luck with that.

      Great place to work!

      Pros

      I had a challenging start but after a few months everything fell into place. I love the people I work with and the department I'm in. Management in my department is very open to hearing new and innovative ideas. I often feel my voice is heard and I have a lot of opportunity to get involved in different projects.

      Cons

      A lot of people that work here have been here for many years and is likely the only place they have ever worked. This tends to foster a very cliquey environment and it's very hard for a new person to adjust. I fear that this may be driving away some great talent.
