Pros
The benefits are good and in times of uncertainty it is nice to have a regular paycheck while some of my friends and family are struggling.
Cons
The loss of key leaders over the last has had a negative impact on morale and the desire to support the company. The leaders who left were able to get the best out of their teams, had a vision, and helped the executive leadership stay grounded and do what was right. Turnover can be a good thing, however the wrong people left. My peer group is proactively in looking for outside opportunities as the business continues to spiral downward, benefits are cut, and management looks the other way as the values are not followed. Lack of trust, trickery, and hidden agendas by senior management looking to save their own jobs is normal.
