Short-sighted management practices hurt an otherwise good organization.

Business Outlook

Pros

Truly make the best quality products on the market, produced by some very good people who are proud of what they make. Good pay and benefits overall.

Cons

Corporate management has no idea how the work actually gets done, but are quick toimplement programs and make decsions without thinking of the impact to those doing the work. Senior management has been known to make decisons that de-motivate employees (e.g., cutting the bonus plan the day the checks are issued).
