Pros

Summer Friday's Week between Christmas and New Years - semi off Product Allowance

Cons

IT at this company is in a sad, sad state. Recently named global CIO is an immature man child that has no expertise. The way you get ahead in this company is to be French, a man, an alcoholic. Company makes deals at the bar - deals aren't made on whats best for the company -its what is most inexpensive and cross it off the check list. IT is headed in a really bad direction, I have never seen a company spiraling downward so fast. Politics are the name of the game and if you can't be a politician don't expect to last. Expect to be thrown under the bus and when they tell you they value your opinion and expertise…..don't listen. All they want are puppets.
