Dinosaurs ignoring the incoming meteor - Recensione dipendente - Engineer presso Victaulic

Victaulic is run by a sea of old white men who think they're helming a company in the 1950s. Employees wear ties every day to sit butts-in-seats in cubicles with nary a customer in sight. Sales rules all, so any request that comes in from a salesperson requires immediate fulfillment, no matter how ridiculous, inappropriate, or expensive. Hurricane, blizzard, pandemic that killed your relatives? Too bad, so sad, get to the office ASAP. Sexual harassment is ignored, but they're quick to find a handful of attractive women in engineering to trot out for photo ops in trade journals (who go on record about how equitable the company is, before quickly leaving for other companies). Managers muse about how they have a problem retaining women, but just can't seem to put a finger on why. Anyone hired before 2006 is in the pension, and their non-competitive salaries are used to justify depressing the salaries of new hires (who are NOT eligible for the pension). "Innovation" is the buzz word that justifies everything: we need in-person employee interactions to foster innovation (and that's why you're risking your life coming into the office during Covid). Strange how the pay, benefits, business practices, and workplace attitudes all completely lack this "innovation".
