Pros

Fast-paced and entrepreneurial. If you are looking to truly own and run a business at the VP/GM level and have experience in industrials/B2B this is a good place to have some autonomy and really cut your teeth. Imagine a much less sophisticated Danaher or ITW. Additionally, depending on the business, you'll get a lot of exposure to global markets and pretty direct contact with customers. Within the business units, this is not a very hierarchical structure and - if you are running a business - you are expected to know every nook and cranny including a level of intimacy with your customers that is not expected at a GE, 3M, Honeywell, etc...

Cons

If you are not highly ops or P&L focused/driven this place isn't really for you. Even within the technical side, a lot of the R&D muscle and dollars have been pulled out to solely focus on known entity/high confidence development projects. You won't have the opportunity to simply innovate freely. The top-down pressures to exceed any number that is put on paper are immense and ripple throughout the organization. The Mission - making the world healthier, safer and more productive - is a good internal rah-rah driver for those who connect with it. Though it's pretty easy to punch holes in it once you look at the full portfolio of companies.

Pros

Pay is not bad and some people are nice.

Cons

The company went through way too many changes in a very short amount of time. Internal communication was honestly pretty bad. Senior management’s strategy and execution were often confusing and inconsistent. There were too many initiatives and priorities happening at once, which caused a lot of confusion. Some people were great, some weren’t. The pay was good, but the benefits were not.
