    Horrible, no longer the company it was. You are nothing but a number, no matter how good you do your job you will be watching your back.
    The good thingsNothing, the company has changed too much from what it was to what it is. Was a good working environment, no longer.
    The challengesUpper management are only 'yes' people, and making sure they are looked after at the expense of others.
