Fair amount of individual latitude

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Fairly wide latitude into how things are done at the individual level. Informal relationships/structures. Leave policy is very flexible. Recently much improved vision benefits. Very visionary CEO.

Cons

Decision making on flows tends to be optimized within functional groups as opposed to across functional groups where better overall efficiency can be achieved. Perceived wall between management and non-management (or a select few) in terms of insight and input into decision making, strategic direction. Small 401-k matching by company.
