Pros

It was easy to be promoted by showing initiative.

The company is still in transition from the merger and only time will tell if the decisions made by the top managers were the right ones.

Pros

Fun atmosphere, opportunity to travel, opportunity to work with other business units. Great if you are a self starter, acknowledges accomplishments when completing price goals.

Cons

If you do not speak up, you will be overlooked when promotion opportunities arise. It works in your benefit to befriend the right people so that you will be recognized, because your work alone will not help. Directors sometimes take advantage of roles and blame managers and analyst for their slack.
