Pros

Coworkers are great, flexible with PTO, everyone who's been there for 15+ years will tell you how great it was back then.

Cons

Severely expensed challenged organization, very poor organization planning, huge disconnect between day to day employees and leadership. Shipping any position possible oversees. Leaders only care about themselves, not making focused decisions for the long term.

Pros

Best coworkers ever! They are down to earth, no egos, and really want their work to contribute to the company growth. Work life balance is good because there is no urgency, or because whatever strategy was implemented already fell apart. This provided time to search for new jobs at least.

Cons

Terrible policy and process management in most parts of the organization. Supply chain is particularly bad. Don’t think I’ve experienced so much process chaos in my career.
