Pros

Great benefits. Decent pay. Most of the people there are great to work with but the very few ruin it for the rest.

Cons

Chaos. Pure and simple. Inventory is out of control, no strictly followed or developed business processes, project meeting are tailored to be a venue for throwing one another under the bus and an to come up with a story for justifying skewed and behind schedule timelines presented to upper management, everyone is in constant fire fighting mode, management doesn't know how to work together - each department is at each other's throat, some managers are major micro managers where as others are totally hands off... Simply there is no direction, no vision. It is understood that in order to make money product must go out the door. But doing the same incorrect, non-value added routine day in and day out is good for no one.

Pros

Good company, good culture overall

Cons

Pay could be less than the market, though not too low. Work life balance does cover some of that gap

Pros

Coworkers are great Many problems so you stay busy as a CI person The people at the worker bee level are the only real pro

Cons

Managers are too “wise” You can’t change anything inside the ERP but they all want ERP changes (it’s bad you will get frustrated) Super decentralized meaning all building operate how they want to. They make it sound like a strength but it’s literally their biggest weakness. Managers do not understand processes USZ or the NSC in Charlotte has a serious issue of hiring people who are not qualified for manager roles as managers. Discrimination They care more about how you look and not so much about the work you produce
