Pluspunten

Some of the best pay in the industry. Most are overpaid in fact, which causes it's own problems.

Minpunten

Lip service to the Code of Conduct while pulling some of the most unethical maneuvers and treating employees as a disposable asset to be flexed for ROI while demanding greater output from those remaining to maintain velocity. HR Managers have no idea what's actually in the employee manual, and don't seem to care. Mid-level managers do whatever they want, crack racist and homophobic jokes, and then expect good leadership and Employee Opinion Survey ratings. Company finally eliminated EOS because employee satisfaction had become interminably low due to continuously increasing Exececutives compensation and paying out on their Bonus Plans while canceling the incentive plan for everyone else. I guess decided why let employees see everyone else is just as disgruntled and risk return of unions. Managers didn't adapt well to push by new CEO Jim Umplby to actually write Goals at start of year Vs. just fudging a summary of what employees did at end of year as "Goals". Managers were suddenly expected to coach and mentor, treating the "Manager" part of the job with top priority, which threw a company full of incompetent mid-level managers into disarray.

Pluspunten

You are treated with autonomy, dignity, and respect. It is assumed you know how to do your job and are given the trust and means to do so. Compensation is above market value. Uncapped professional growth if you know how to play your cards right.

Minpunten

Working at Burger King and living from my car in Northern Michigan during the middle of winter was preferable to working on-site in Peoria. Project work was inherently meaningless and dictated almost entirely by the caste system this company has in Central, IL. My relocation had absolutely nothing to do with the role at hand and was a power play by management to get me to become a bleed-yellow Peorian in the CAT-corporate social club. The company loyalty here is absolutely disgusting and has nothing to do with the viability of the brand or product. Everyone is enamored with the status and wealth they've attained on account of not performing hard, manual, life-threatening labor. You would be hard-pressed to find anyone who actually cares about what goes on in the defense division or addressing the geopolitical anomalies between the former headquarters and the new business direction of the company.
