Great Company

Pros

People, mobility within the company Can move up in the company really fast. Plants are located close to each other, so families do not constantly move around.

Cons

No cutting edge work. R&D is limited to latest fashion trends and not necessarily engineering aspects. Carpet is not necessarily a glamorous field.
