Svantaggi
Upper management is in France away from the majority of the staff. They make decisions that are not based on what is good for business and has a negative impact on employee morale. It is difficult sometimes dealing with French models of business and egos. Many times efforts are made from upper management directives that squander important resources; often these overly consuming efforts are wasted when upper management decides to go in another direction away from original efforts. Business lines are always dictating the priority of their projects/initiatives and when priorities are not agreeable to them they will waste no time stating displeasure to the highest management that will hear them. There has been little to keep very talented staff on the payroll and little effort to hire talent to replace vacancies despite fairly shallow programs to attract new hires. The aren't enough people to do what this firm wants to do. 2 years ago there was, but the company wasted lots of money and left their employees holding the bag. The company had promise 2 years ago, but it is a place now with little motivation to be a competitor. Its not a cohesive place with a majority focus or goals.
