Received and Declined Offer
|
Interviewed Aug 2011 in Phoenix, AZ (took 6 weeks)
Poorly coordinated from the first contact. No one seemed in charge. It took four people on the Power One side to even make the travel arrangements - this in a company with just $1B in gross sales. After all the hype, arrived on time to discover that no one knew three of the key people listed to meet with (alleged senior executives) were either in aanother State, or, were sick.
Interview Questions
Reason for Declining
The VP appears to be a micro-manager, and, evasive. All but one of the people I met with was unprepared or unwilling to answer direct questions about the position. It was alleged this was a "startup" plant operation - despite the $1B parent's revenue...and it showed. Manufacturing process completely out of control with a 30,000 PPM defect rate and a 65% customer return rate. NO quality staff in place. Visit to shop floor showed no sense of organization...many people standing around doing nothing, or, informed they were on their "break". No indicated bonus structure at the Director level, but a representation of 60+ hour weeks.
I have stated the interviews were "difficult" because of the gross lack of organization and miscues throughout the day. Just before I exited, I informed the HR representative that I was completely unsatisfied with the process and would not accept an offer - even if presented.
An extrmely negative process from beginning to end.
Other Details
The interview consisted of a Phone Interview, a 1:1 Interview and a Presentation.
