CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Talented and creative people in the trenches. Company has a reputation for solid products.

Cons

Many executives lack leadership skills. The CEO has allowed vice presidents to reorganize their departments too frequently, leading many to wonder if anyone on the 7th floor knows what they're doing.

Rewarding negative behavior only gets you more of the same!

Business Outlook

Pros

- Pleasing work space - Convenient access to city, expressways and airport - Friendly colleagues - Work/life balance for some - Training benefits for some

Cons

- Top heavy with Directors that don't really direct; they recommend Consultants because they don't want to be accountable for the results - Noticeable back stabbing/in-fighting among upper Management lobbing for positioning - Executive Management & Directors take credit for work they did not get involved with and take no accountability when projects fail! - Salaries not competitive with the market due to lack of audio competition in the Midwest - The wrong folks get promoted for reasons that have nothing to do with competency - Work/Life balance is there for some ... the "worker bees" put in long hours - Management allows ridiculous amount of associates to attend trade shows that cost the company way more than necessary. Four Associates share a cab and everyone asks the cabby for a blank receipt ... imagine the trade show master expense report!
