Complete lost all drive to excellence

Pros

Good salary in good business environment

Cons

Driven by short term incentives with little technical sensitivity by finance jugglers. A once great high tech company has completely lost its drive to excellency and is preparing to marginalize a once admired brand. Loosing tech know how and running the company on a shoe string for years is not sustainable and will not succeed. Do "America first" is a bad idea if you are running a global company. If it is "fix it , sell it or close it" you need to have deliver on all three not only 2 and 3. The destructive energy that the company reveals is not matched by anything positive.
