Pros
At the local level, workers respect each other and work together toward a common good. But local managers can only do so much against the tide of bloated, top heavy corporate overhead and ineffective senior managers.
Cons
WeyCo corporate is top heavy and rewards senior managers well. But employees who actually produce products that make happy customers are not fairly rewarded. Safety is a prime goal, which is a noble corporate cause. But current over-emphasis on RIR figures has pushed injuries 'underground'. While numbers reported to OSHA are in fact down, worker's comp attorneys are happy, and senior managers get to pat themselves on the back and pad their bonuses, the realty from someone in the trenches is that un-reported injuries are happening.
