Scotts Miracle-Gro – “Vision of upper management is not trickling down

Nov 19, 2008

2.0

Scotts Miracle-Gro Senior Analyst in Marysville, OH:   (Past Employee - 2008)

Pros

Excellent benefits, commute with no traffic. On site medical center.

Cons

Disrespect between internal teams. Individuals going behind the team's back to get the result they want, rather than being upfront. Reliance on consultants.

Advice to Senior Management

Respect your internal teams. Look for ways to do more by cutting expensive overhead that you're not using. Can you accomplish the same goal by hiring competent staff and being agile in what they work on. Build teams up enough so they have peers who they can work with and lean on. Far too many managers, not enough doers. Doers are disrespected. For some reason, I doubt that this is the vision of fearless leader Jim Hagedorn, who seems to be quite up front and honest. How his message is not trickling down, I do not understand
