Ventajas
Well managed financially, fairly nimble in responding to sales opportunities, benefits and vacation were competitive, open to people with different professional backgrounds, low corporate bureaucracy.
Desventajas
There is essentially no way to think long term or strategically in a smaller Roper company because short term financial metrics predominate over longer term strategic considerations, what strategy we did have was disconnected from operational capabilities and not communicated to employees, management culture was secretive and reactive, job descriptions and org charts were either undocumented or kept secret from employees, org charts had bizarre reporting relationships and spans of control which hampered execution, no performance feedback was provided to employees .
