Pros
Dedicated employees and company mission. Good brand names in the market. Loyal employees and customers.
Cons
Arrogant, authoritative and bias leadership. Highly political and Buddy buddy system for promotions, raises and head count approvals. Product management is a decade behind, digital solutions don’t work, web is over engineered, marketing cannot finish any presentation on time, sales territories are unfairly set, supply chain underestimating stocks, parts often late, brand team self serving and killing powerful and recognized brand names from acquired companies, DEI is a checkbox, sustainability’s impact is overinflated, HR encouraging to manage with fear tactics and retaliation, customer service processing at a slowest pace. Everyone is selling everything everywhere and making promises to customers that cannot be met. Highly matrixed since merger which created a mess. Even customers are calling it as such. We spend too much time on reinventing processes rather than using common sense to move things along. Leaders expectations are killing job satisfaction and fulfillment. It’s a sweat shop. Bad culture. Wondering who put 5 star rating, I have to find these folks. Maybe they are in HR or comms.
