Big Company, small location atmosphere ruined by politics

Business Outlook

Pros

Worldwide scope of an organization with great technical products and processes that can challenge technical people as well as good benefits overall.

Cons

Overall management handling of local employees is poor; continual changing of General Managers who always have to "make their mark" in order to move themselves up don't have a clue typically about the business unit creates a political atmosphere where most middle managers have to try to fit into the new manager's thinking to survive. The French obsession with head count, rather than investment dollars, creates a more haphazard work atmosphere as well.
