Pros

Rob Friel is a tax attorney - he knows how to guide a company, note there were no layoffs in 2008. Stability Good market position

Cons

Standard Wall-Street pressures mean some layoffs - I was in one in January 2013 It happens, deal with it - they treated me fairly

Pros

Great people in field and customer facing positions. Vast knowledge base of applications and instrumentation.

Cons

Very poor executive leadership- don't want to spend money on marketing, promotion of instrumentation, or relevant customer applications. Most do not know industry. Wonder why sales are decreasing.
