New Management Impedes Technology and Product Development - Mechanical Engineer II Xerox Employee Review

New management (John Visentin, CTO, VP's) do not understand product development. They micromanage without having the technical skills to make sound judgement. Goals are beyond reasonable into pure fantasy. Any pushback or attempt to communicate resource needs are met with toxicity. Management says we are empowered to change outdated processes but then force us to use the outdated processes. Instead of listening to well-developed alternative process plans, management instead enforces extra reporting, reducing the time individual contributors can spend on their value added time. There is an incredible exodus spanning all age groups and skills with no transition plan. HR ignores concerns, even when they are related to business ethics. There are no raises. There is no 401k match. Even when there was a 401k match the match was made in one lump sum the January after the year in question, however multiple times this was retroactively canceled so you could not plan for your retirement. Management has the assumption that anything can be outsourced with no oversight. There is no reward for extreme overtime put in by salaried individuals. Salaried and hourly employees have been asked to cancel their vacations or face repercussions.
