Doesn't Approve of CEO
Pros

Stability, access to work in great technology, secure job as not too many layoffs.

Cons

Too much work.

The organization is old and full of politics. Growth opportunities are limited and depend on how you curry favor with upper management.

It does not have a collaborative culture and is more focused on individual accomplishments. The organization is very structured and hierarchical. It is not egalitarian.

Advice to Management

There needs to be more information sharing between departments.

Every person should have a 360-degree feedback for their review.

Currently, the organization is very hierarchical, and every person kisses their upper levels' ass while they kick down.
