Advice to Senior Management

None

Pros

Salary was ok. General expenses covered ie. hotels and transport. Fellow employees were nice people to work with, there was the odd exception.

Cons

The average duration permanent employees stayed within the division where I worked was 18 months. There was little or no "corporate memory" because of this turnover of staff which included design engineers etc. I have never come across such a short tenure before of since. Senior management did not trust their staff and in general there was a lot of treachery and mistrust.

Advice to Senior Management

Major cultural change is needed. A major re-think of operating strategy is urgently required. Need to build trust and confidence among the staff.
