Cons
Small layoffs have become standard to improve bottom line (sometimes a pro to shed certain positions) Leadership in general are not industry experts and some are not competent Software is not advanced technology, no CIO to lead the coordination Opportunity for advancement very limited due to size of division Policy on working remote is not consistent and penalizes some positions Business units work in silos and duplication is accepted Acquisitions not integrated well Excessive time spent on corporate demands for reporting
