Business outlook
Pros
Work is not too bad. No definite due dates for projects. Free will.
Cons
Lack of support for lean initiatives. Always prioritizing today's hours earned versus future. Praises "firefighters" instead of preventing the fire from ever happening. Upper management lack understanding of the Toyota Production System. Lean engineers lack real authority to make changes. Have to depend on motivations and convincing hard headed supervisors.
