Pros

Travel opportunities Pay is decent Nice benefits for managers and above (Car, Phone...etc) Decent PTO

Cons

No guidance or leadership from Director level and up Promotions are not based on ability or merit Payroll and HR departments are terribly inept at their jobs - Employees are frequently not paid correctly, if at all, OT payments and tax withdrawals are frequently incorrect No communication processes department to department Unable to make decisions and stick with those decisions Prefer to play the blame game as opposed to finding the root causes to issues and fixing them

Pros

Benefits are excellent, most people at the peer level are great. Clear performance expectations. Decent cross functional communication

Cons

Company leadership very European and doesn't quite understand the American consumer even after being in the US so long. Unreasonable expectations are the norm. No upward mobility unless you are European or speak fluent German.
