Pros

Opportunities abound to learn and develop new skills. The organization runs lean and you will get cross trained with multiple different positions in the company. There are opportunities to mow globablly if you develop marketable skills. The company invests lots of money in employees through their back to basics program. The company strives to innovate and find new markets and products. The corporate culture emphasizes hospitality and customer service. If you enjoy a fast paced and dynamic environment the work days will fly by.

Cons

The company organizational structure is flat and confusingly structured. It is generally run with an atmosphere of fear. Fear that you will be replaced if you don't satisfy the shifting whims of the Lyon's, or one of the various corporate officers with ambiguous duties and roles. Despite constant internal communications of how profitable the company is pay increases are not consististant with company progress. Lack of a clear organizational structure tends to lead to peer who outrank others dumping work onto subordinates. The culture is one of fear that you will be eliminated if someone else knows how to do the job that you do. Good people seem to be fired inexplicably.

Pros

- lots of autonomy - fast paced - interesting global network - down to earth CEO - I personally love the culture

Cons

Culture can be overwhelming for some people. There are high expectations to perform and also fit in. Some of the old guard do not want to change with newer management ( but seems to be working itself out)

Pros

Always something to repair or maintain. Supervisors are understanding of family or personal needs. Great coworkers.

Cons

Breakdown in communication between departments. High level employees have no idea how hard the production employees work.
