Pros

Highly skilled professionals , with commitment for quality. Global company with a pragmatic business approach. Multicultural environment with tons of opportunities to share meaningful professional discussions.

Cons

Constant company strategy change that leads to wasted effort and frustrated employees. Company values , while really good , still working their way through to be assimilated by all employees in their daily performance.

Pros

Great products- global expertise Parent company is a solid organization, and opportunities to move to that keep arising Once current leadership moves out (and it will), this will become the great place to work that it once was.

Cons

Current leadership is horrible, and have changed the organization from a theory Y workplace to a theory X workplace. Some great core values, such as "courage and curiosity to question" and "developing the talents of our people" have been discarded- that says something. Little to no career or development path offered. HR is a hollow function.
