      My manager and team mates are very collaborative.

      Cons

      With so many businesses, it's not easy to keep updated on what's going on in other business units.

      Pros

      Generally most people were great to work with.

      Cons

      Many people echoed poor work/life balance. Seemed like a lot of burn out was occurring. The person in charge of my training when I joined was clearly working too much, can’t imagine they’d want to train someone new with their workload. Poor training for new hires, mainly due to lack of time/resources. Then get told you ask too many questions due to the poor training. MKS has a long way to go to be competitive. Local HR folks seemed more with the times than corporate HR. I learned a lot from having conversations with local people.
