Pros

Internal open posting process provides employees to seek out for cross-functional opportunities and professional growth. Collaborations amongst team members is excellent.

Cons

Systems and global P&L structure are too fragmented that hinder efficiency in tactical and strategic decisions and communications. Leadership members and team members expectations are often unaligned.

Pros

Great People - Many people have been with the company for over 10-15 years and some for most of their career. This helps to build great relationships among co-workers and a fun place to work. Stability - Overall, business does not suffer as much during a recession.

Cons

While many people have been with the company for their entire careers, this also makes the company very insular and slow to change. Company tends to be overly cost focused on "little things" (ie office supplies and printer paper) while not realizing that the culture, systems and way of doing business wastes millions of dollars every year.

Pros

Good salary for a co-op Free product, or reduced rates on product Schedule flexibility Management recognizes you have a life outside of KC

Cons

Too many meetings, too little productivity No one can make decisions. They spend millions on research, yet can't implement much needed improvements to current products. The employee rating system seems to be designed to intimidate rather than improve performance.
