Pros

- #1 is the people. Although so much talent has left KC, there are still some wonderful people left. - Parking is good

Cons

- Senior mgmt is completely out of touch, yet they try so hard to make you believe they care. Pathetic. - Lower level managers try to please their bosses to be the next "pet". - SO much talent has left this company it is truly sad. Experience is not valued. - Company has been on a 8 year cost savings journey that now has come to "Burn the Furniture". - The next step to save money is to implement new pay standards to become "competitive". This is easily seen as cutting salaries and benefits. - Performance Management system that continues to kill morale while wasting tons of time. - Senior leadership views employees as a number, a headcount, and not a person. You can be replaced and you may be soon.
