Business Outlook

Pros

The people really are the companies greatest asset. There are so many people I've had the pleasure to work with who are engaged, passionate and hugely knowledgeable.

Cons

The senior leadership within engineering is inadequate at best. Many have promoted to their level of incompetency and remain in that position because there's no-where else to put them. Unfortunately they then foster a culture of fear to cover up their own inadequacy - this really doesn't help the business and unfortunately drives many good people to exit.
