Pros
The travel, and freedom to act independently in the identification, and development of potential suppliers in the U.S. to create savings while promoting quality product manufacturing within the U.S.
Cons
Internally Keihin NA (North American Headquarters, in Anderson In.) does a poor job of communicating, and following through with projects. The politics within Keihin NA create a bottleneck effect, therefore wasting numerous man hours and capital.
