Business outlook
Pros
They truly believe in their mission to make health care safer and more productive. The time off and other benefits are outstanding. They have the foresight to invest in operational excellence.
Cons
Many areas of the business are still driven by the "good old boy" network. Much of their success is related to expense control and not revenue growth. They talk the talk on operational excellence but they don't walk the walk. The stock value has been stagnant for such a long time it is difficult to build any wealth through equity awards. Performance metrics for individual business units are soft, self defined, self reported and easily gamed.
