Pros

Good brand name, customers wish them well and want them to be around. 140 years old company and so says something about riding tough times.

Cons

- Way too many - Old guard will make your life very difficult - They hire senior people and would not know what to do with them after that. - Playing with careers of leaders hired from market - You need to be master of Playing politics to survive in this company - No room for meritocracy, politics is supreme - Complete denial of cultural issues and so company may not survive - Product quality and road map has become an issue now. Company has a portfolio issue and hence is losing in the market

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
