Pros

Diverse and global team Best in class products

Cons

Politics - too many business units and not enough centralized product strategy and focus Not enough cross product/group sharing and collaboraiton No culture or proof points of true innovation...really just adding on options and auto generation of mappings to cash cow - PowerCenter. Anything remotely innovative has been acquired technologies (e.g. B2B, Cloud apps, etc.)

It is important that all perspectives are given openly and honestly, so that we as a company can continue with the things we are doing right and improve on things that come to our attention.

In terms of your less favorable views on Politics, Collaboration and Innovation, please feel free to reach out to our BR Business Partner community to share your concerns in more detail so that we may be able to work with executive management on how to improve in these areas and capitilize on what may be some good ideas you have.
