Svantaggi
The good 'ol boy Motorola culture is still around. There is no manufacturing at the corporate headquarters in Phoenix. To be an effective engineer working from Corporate, you have to work virtually on product engineering projects with engineers from the acquired factories. Many times, the engineers from the acquired factories are resentful towards those from corporate making it difficult to succeed. There is no trust between business units. Business units have to compete amongst each other and the only measure is profit. Top down, directive management style in some business units. ON's management culture is a few generations back. There is no employee training in the myriad of ON systems. The multiple ON systems are a direct result of growth through acquisition. There is no synchronization of the multiple data systems inherited from acquisition.
