Pros

The company makes a ton of money on its core business. The company shares with employees.

Cons

The company has no future. The company keeps buying smaller companies, trying to get into new businesses. It rarely works out.

Advice to Management

Focus. Less market adjacencies, more innovation. Don't try to buy a business; build and grow one.
