Business Outlook

Pros

Trying to make things better in the world using electrification and the skills of hard-working intelligent people.

Cons

The business has changed hands and the culture has taken a big hit. They began putting things in place to improve things and then laid off a large workforce. The company overreacted to the market. Instead of taking the downturn time to truly improve they cut costs and spending and send the organization back into a spiral that does not improve in the long run.
