Pros

The people are great on an individual level. The pay is good. They're working on training. Work-life balance is good.

Cons

There is no direction in terms of company strategy and working toward a common goal. The focus is continually changing. Two years of constant reorganization while ignoring basic principles of organizational behavior leads employees to feel there's always an ax above their head and focus on the uncertainty rather than achieving objectives.

Pros

Global leader in segment, safety procedures, and values.

Cons

Recently top management is obsessed with generating profits by cutting headcount, leading to higher workloads, and then they talk about mental wellbeing. In 2026 the strategy is only to generate profits, even if it means we risk our own sales.
