There's good and bad

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The Mothership in Northbrook is solid. Good benefits, lots of locations globally. It's a brand-name organization with a strong sense of corporate responsiblity.

Cons

Some of the recent acquisitions are all over the place. Hard to see why they bought them, and nobody seems to be minding the store. CEO is a little tone deaf, out of touch with the day to day workers. Salaries are stagnant, not a lot of room for growth if you're mid-level.

Business Outlook

Pros

People are very nice, capable, and helpful. The atmosphere is relaxed, if precariously so. Benefits are reasonable.

Cons

Training is poorly handled. Pay is a bit on the low side. Learning curve is high, and with recent shakeup, everyone is on that curve.

Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunity to learn and get experience. Company Has a great mission and a great foundation. Really difficult to get fired. Great people. Family atmosphere.

Cons

Engineers are glorified secretaries. Company has lost sight of mission over profits. Management is blind. Hard work gets you nowhere. Only way to get recognized is to be part of the 'boys club'. R&D Department has turned away from safety and into material analysis only. Difficulty to get fired has breed laziness. When someone does get fired it appears random. Principle Designated Engineers has fallen asleep at the wheel decades ago. Safety decisions are driven by the larger clients. Smaller clients are largely ignored. Nepotism is rampant.
