Volcano Corp was great but Philips wasn’t

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Awesome VP of ops. She came from the line and worked hard to be up the ranks. Older management were all awesome but once Philips integrated their managers and beliefs into volcano people it wasn’t great. It was such an awesome place to work for before the political stuff came on board.

Cons

Orig workers were all great people to work with but when Philips mentality came in, they bulldoze the talents out of that building to build in Costa Rica, which had some major re-calls which when we built in the US, there were never a recall.

Philips Response

Thank you for taking the time to tell us about the 10+ years you've worked for our company as Manufacturing Supervisor. It's regrettable that changes were made within your department that you didn't think were for the better. Our management is active here on Glassdoor as well, so your feedback definitely won't go unnoticed. Take care, and all the best in your professional career!
