Pros

Company has a strong mission with lots of potential. Was at one time a great place to work...

Cons

Some of the business leaders are incompetent and are only able to stay in their positions because they are very skilled at deflecting blame onto their subordinates and are not held accountable by senior leadership. Also another big problem is legacy employees with no skills have been promoted to leadership positions and have no business being there. In general there needs to be more accountability for the senior leaders and changes made to put people with skills and talent in those roles.

Strong brand reputation and credibility in the marketplace. Excellent opportunity to gain experience in sales, compliance, testing, certification, and regulatory industries. Friendly, knowledgeable, and collaborative colleagues who are willing to help each other succeed. Good work-life balance compared to many sales organizations. Stable business with diverse industries and customers. Professional development opportunities and exposure to complex customer challenges.

Typical large-company bureaucracy can slow decision-making and execution. Internal processes and approvals may require patience and persistence. Organizational complexity can sometimes create challenges when navigating cross-functional initiatives. Career progression may occasionally depend on understanding and adapting to corporate dynamics.
