Would rate "0" if possible. Never Trust - No Direction - No mentor quality leadership

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Many of the 'doers' good. Great place to learn what not to do in business.

Cons

Company has no direction, no strategy, no concern for employees. One VP makes comments when good people leave that it makes no difference, no one will even rememvber the one that left. No concern to motivate and train. Years behind in the industry and even then make mistakes the industry learned years ago. Don't understand IT, automation and still favor manual processes, bad IT mgmt and systems, many outages, shipments delayed. Mgmt hires and protects bad employees - many at Sr levels - who are friends more than is finanacially responsible. Constant state of chaos fostered by the CEO and the Executive Leadership.
