Vantaggi

Some training programs are good. You will become a PowerPoint guru since they love to look at slides.

Svantaggi

Hyper political environment. Highly Matrixed organization with redundant layers and many dotted lines. Lots of MBAs hired at corporate to collect useless data from the businesses and make powerpoints. CEO Makes all decisions on management roles even far down into the organization with people he doesn’t know. If you didn’t work for the CEO in strategic planing group you have zero chance at getting a high level role. Lack of engineers running businesses so they manage via PowerPoint and Politics.

Vantaggi

Great immediate supervisor and their boss. Made top-down communications tolerable. Great co-workers and great collaboration that lifted the entire team.

Svantaggi

(1) RIF based on tenure, not performance. HR is too powerful a department, and everyone fears it. (2) Tenure made you lazy, killed creativity, initiative, and promoted a "yes" culture. (3) During COVID layoffs, CEO pay went from $3.7 million to $15.x million, while employees endured 25% furloughs for 3 months, and management 10% reduction in pay for 6 months - explain how that is reasonable. (4) CEO declared DEI as the way forward for career mobility, and a lot of young, promising talent walked out the door, including DEI-qualified minorities. (5) I was one of those minorities.
