Doesn't Approve of CEO
Pros

Good compensation and benefits. The education material is great.

Cons

Company too big, too much paperwork, useless reviews (PBC-IDP-Half year review, etc.). CEO: "Just focus on the next quarter result." Outsourcing resources to cheaper foreign countries is the main objective. Software group managers are not aware of the real-world challenges.

Advice to Management

Not enough turnover; some managers are dinosaurs in their field.
