Pros

*Low to mid level people are generally pleasant to work with. *If you're happy taking orders from your manager and simply executing by following cookie cutter processes, you'll probably be fine.

Cons

*Management at the top is inbred. There's little to no outside blood to bring in fresh ideas. *Creativity is low. You need to stick to the script set by others in Germany or the head office in New Jersey. *There's an intense cutthroat atmosphere among many middle managers. People in other departments are frequently all to happy to see their peers fail and seem to fear it will expose their own weaknesses. *Some of the most important people reporting to the President Pat Murphy are real dogs - For example, one is clearly ADD and another is OCD. Beware!
