Reviews about "decision making"
Return to all Reviews- 2.0Sep 5, 2017Anonymous EmployeeFormer Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
Technology and flexibility. Work from Home is another good option provided to employees

Upper management does not communicate any decisions to lower level managers and this makes lower managers decision making process harder.

Pros
Autonomy in decision making Flexible schedule Great benefits

Management takes too much time to make critical decisions and then puts their employees under the gun to deliver in an unreasonable period of time.
- 3.0Nov 22, 2017Anonymous EmployeeCurrent Employee, more than 3 years
Pros
Stable environment, great benefits, slower pace for those looking for more life/work balance
Cons
Non-collaborative, lack of vision & innovation, slow pace means things are not getting done. Culture is more about individual career development rather than making good decisions that impact the business.

Diversity & Inclusion is a critical part of our business, and very important initiatives are taking place now and in the future. We strive to have an open channel of communication that we share with both our teams and customers. Rest assured, your feedback has been heard. We also appreciate your input for management consideration.
- 3.0Oct 9, 2013DirectorCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearSan Jose, CA
Pros
Great pay and benefits provided at all levels. Very generous! Amazing HR folks! The CEO of the company is smart, passionate and sincere. John Donahoe is the real deal and a great leader. He may be the most approachable CEO I've ever met.
Cons
Lack of alignment from senior management and lack of decision making ability. Cafeteria's on-campus have good quality food but you have to pay for it and choices become boring after awhile. And due to parking issues (difficult to find parking), it is rare that anyone leaves campus for lunch.
