Avantages
An org that is full of potential and opportunity. Strong brand equity and solid reputation. Educated and in some cases distinguished knowledge workers: corporate scientists, chemists, high profile executives. Long history and vast array of products. Solid compensation and benefits package.
Inconvénients
Toxic organizational culture. Authority and order driven culture. Dated approach to diversity and inclusion. Immensely unhappy workforce. Complacent and apathetic tenured employees. Elitist and power hungry executive attitudes. Change and risk averse environment. Incredibly hierarchical, bureaucratic and formal. Stifling for creativity and innovation. Embarrassingly frequent misuse and waste of resources. Highly unethical and deceptive. Unable to retain millennial talent. Poor talent development opportunities at every level of the company. Pathologically political environment. Opportunistic and self-absorbed middle management. Overly siloed down to project teams within teams. Cronyism, nepotism, and favoritism. Fumbling, inconsistent approach to strategic planning. Best practice developed through confirmation bias. Many highly educated but poorly seasoned/experienced employees. Check-the-box, stale approach to work. Terrible communications company-wide.
