Pros

It pays the bills. For now. The Company has a strong name. I believe in the USA, employees are well considered.

Cons

A lot of frustration due to complexity for doing anything. IT has too many stakeholders for taking any actions that we are too slow to react. Paid in Sterling but having living expenses indexed on the Euro makes a salary reduction of 50 %, The orderboard wants to increase , but decisison are made to deliver them at teh end of year , which contains more and more uncertainities. This likely to to end in non orders or cancellations if we wait too long. People were feeling left aside in Kent before the situation turned down. Employee moral was low. The difficulty in this situation is tah company shall also focus on how well they will end the curve. When economy will kick in again , companies that woould have managed more carefully will be able to ramp up quicker than others and will take marketshare... If they have the right people.

Pros

The pay is good and the people at the same level are terrific.

Cons

Constant management changes. Managers that are hired are trained by those under them and then review them according to what they "think" is acceptable performance with no knowledge of what the employee is really doing.

Pros

Provides a paycheck, albeit declining in purchase power.

Cons

Restructuring at whim of consultants and small “in” crew to build their empire after knocking all the sticks down…unfortunately they knock the sticks down as often as a 2 year old. Pay has not kept up with COLA while execs more than exceeded COLA. DEI has backfired thru accelerated misuse of metrics to disadvantage MLK’s dream. I don’t want a job because of the color of my skin, my gender, nor my beliefs. I see this quiet struggle where leaders are promoted by demographic not capability. This short sights the significant accomplishments made and do I really deserve it? Hopefully the lawsuits don’t start flowing due to reverse discrimination for new hires in US as I only seen focus to black, Latino, and women thru our intake channels, interviews, and hires. The point of this company culture is to build lasting friendships based on common passions like diesel engines, cars, golf,..not find a clic of people I can relate to based on my demographic. The irony is not lost to me how detrimental this practice will end up being to the companies culture and “brand”. Don’t get me started on the move to further off-shore to India …can only assume we will sponsor fewer visas now to give these folks a taste of America or compensate them appropriately.
