Avantages
-Some of the nicest people you will ever meet. -My particular role has more freedom than others (work from home, taking on additional fun projects as long as I'm meeting my requirements) -It's so big that it's hard for management to keep up with every nuance of the way people spend their time, so, even though it's not explicitly encouraged, there is opportunity to explore different skill sets. -Louisville may not be a bustling town, but it is still a place for entrepreneurial minds to make their mark.
Inconvénients
-No clear path to advancement. -Dinosaur technology systems -Rigid hierarchy -Conservative business culture (stringent dress code, lack of work at home policy for everyone) -Lots of unwritten rules -Homogenous workforce (there is some ethnic diversity, but it's segregated by hierarchical level; not a lot of experiential diversity) -Many people in senior leadership have outrageous egos and do not recognize the value of the perspective and experience of associates at lower levels (often working closest to consumers, and therefore with the greatest potential for insight). -Corporate language makes no sense and becomes another barrier to understanding consumers
