Business Outlook
Pros
The product, currency paper and actual currency, is cool. The technology is impressive.
Cons
The transition to the new public company, Crane Co. has been a struggle. Crane Currency had been a private company for nearly 200 years; to go to the public model means much more accounting and some other focus is lost (operations, quality, safety). The overall and operations leadership in Dalton is weak. This has been going on for 6-9 months and supposedly changes are in the making; but the effects of this are wearing thin and some up and coming engineers and managers are leaving as a result. Benefits have taken a hit after the acquisition, including salaries.
