Pros

The people are great. At least the few who haven't left. Tons of talent has been driven out or has left the company. Senior Executives are getting incredibly rich. New Vice Presidents, almost all external hires, pop up almost daily.

Cons

Wave after wave of layoffs and recent mill closings have resulted in a disenchanted work force in many areas. Cost cutting is now cutting to the bone. Fat was cut away many years ago. If you aren't in health care expect ongoing budget cuts to continue. This leadership has no idea how to spend profits to grow the company. Bring your own water - nothing is free. Layers of management coupled with political correctness gone wild make many groups unbearable to work for. Performance Management. If you are with KC you know what I'm talking about. This system is a cancer to the company and has sucked the life out of many great workers.
