Vantaggi
Benefits are very good Hours are flexible (although the company approaches COVID with a tough policy stance, managers do not enforce on-site working)
Svantaggi
- Extremely risk averse, without a good way to measure risk. You end up with a company petrified of doing anything even slightly different - Team members will not execute their tasks if they are not written in an SOP. Outside-the-box thinking is encouraged, but ideas are never enacted because they deviate from the SOP. - Managers have no clue how to manage. They are good at science and they attend plenty of "how to be a good leader" seminars, but they do not understand how to relate to or manage people. There is zero performance management (either up or out) - The company lives off of corporate buzz topics (i.e. lean, D/I) but does not know how to execute them. More time is spent in lean meetings to solve a 5 minute problem than will ever be recouped by the gains of solving that 5 minute problem
