Pros

Above average salaries, overall good products and technologies, has policies to treat employees fairly, good expansion strategies.

Cons

Too much politics, at all levels, incredible amounts of time and effort are wasted in internal fighting. Organization is nearly incomprehensible: multiple layers and minute separations of the process and market that multiply exponentially the number of managers and reporting lines. Customer is rarely first. Depending on your manager, worklife becomes hard fast for the low level employee. There is a lot of low level training available, but not about the "good" stuff, and never within a training plan, it's more like "get what you can".

Pros

A lot of good people working here.

Cons

Outsourcing too much design work to India and running with too little design and engineering staff in Kalamazoo. Quality is really suffering at the expense of speed. Nexus is a really poor PLM system. It has hurt productivity significantly and caused employees immense frustration.
