Fair to employees, lack of focus

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Generous base pay, bonuses, benefits, opportunity to travel, opportunities to explore other fields within the company. Everyone is treated with respect and allowed to voice his or her opinion freely.

Cons

Direction from management is scattered; many groups are basically autonomous and left to their own devices. There's heavy competition to be the best internal group in that specific space, so there's a tremendous amount of duplication in efforts and not enough meaningful collaboration.
