Great company, lean workforce

People and organizational development analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Competitive salary, great benefits! I work with people who really care about their jobs! Management has tried to create a transparent environment.

Cons

Company chooses to focus on development opportunities for those already in leadership positions, but does not offer much for "lower level" employees (the individual contributors). Outsourcing of some business processes have reduced visibility and control. It has also made departments very lean and at times overworked. Hard to deviate from day-to-day job duties to work on potentially beneficial projects or getting ahead on anything.

Very pleasant, comfortable work environment.

Every couple years upper management feels obligated to prove their worth by throwing a new org structuring on the wall.

Cons

Matrix organization can make things difficult to get done - although this is changing somewhat Pay is OK, not great Large company problems like bureaucracy like any other similar sized company Pending acquisition by a nationalized Chinese company creates a lot of uncertainty
