      I have been working at ITW full-time (More than 10 years)

      Pros

      Benefit package is industry standard

      Cons

      Leaders speak a lot about values but little sign of walking the talk.

      Leadership lacks empathy and is only passionate about numbers

      Advice to Management

      Stop the talk and start listening. High turnover rate of good employees is a sign of a great company gone bad
