Pros

I cannot think of even one positive quality of this dumpster fire of a company.

Cons

ITW is one of those conglomerate corporations which go around buying up great American companies and gutting them like fish. If they buy your company they will outsource everything possible and eliminate as many people is possible, it doesn't matter what you need for your job. Check the offshore leaks from the ICIJ, you will find ITW hides money in the british virgin island. They lobbied for the corporate tax cuts and kept it all for themselves. If you want to wake up every morning to a meaningless miserable job in which you are supposed to check your brain at the door and create shareholder value for people who don't work for ITW, this is the place for you.

Pros

Great co-workers; smart people who are dedicated to doing good work. There is a general kindness and everyone seems willing to help each other.

Cons

The pay is low, and everyone seems stretched thin. There is little structure to ensure local leaders follow good practices. Evaluation of performance tends to be highly subjective. There seems to be very little management of the management.
