Eastman Kodak – “Focused on cost reductions but not on sustainability.”

Pros

Interesting projects and large base of expertise from which to gather information

Cons

Large company in massive cost cutting mode. Decisions are entirely numbers focused and senior management does not seem to have faith in the individual business units' ability to run a sustainable business over the long term.

Advice to Senior Management

Being entirely numbers focused will force many product lines to fail. This will inevitably result in outsourcing of products from competitors. This is not sustainable in the long term.
