Pros

If you're still employed at Xylem, then I guess at least you still have a job. This is the only good thing I can think of at the moment.

Cons

- Very high staff turnover. - Unrealistic goals and expectations ("180M by 2018"...wishful thinking) and lacks long-term goals. - Lack in-house expertise due to high turnover, with many experienced people leaving the company. - Confusing corporate identity or lack of. - Lots of people who seem to do nothing to contribute being shuffled around from one position to the next over the years, while hard-working employees having to constantly justify their existence. - Very unprofessional practice when it comes to implementing redundancies. - Lack of any career development & opportunity.
