A disappointing startup

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Startup. You get to be able to work on a number of different jobs in different locations. There is very little structure so that you have no idea what the strategy is or what the goals are.

Cons

Startup. Alot of politics. There were a number of layoffs. The CEO was incompetant. The problem is that you get people with a good pedigree, but who are unable to get anything done.

Build the brand!

Vice president

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

When you get the support from Japan, business was good. Great brand, old and stodgy right now, but you could do so much with it.

Cons

They hate doing business in the US. The margins are so thin especially compared to Europe and Asia. They have a great brand, but except in Japan they are doing little with it. They need tor re-invigorate the brand and get people in there that are competent and let them do their job.

Why you don't want to work for Panasonic

Sales manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Only if you need a paycheck and can't find work elsewhere. A great place to work if you have no ambition or goals.

Cons

Low pay as compared to other companies. Ridiculous sales quotas not based on personal achievement. Compensation schedules are changed by management at will or ignored if they feel the company is not profitable enough. It's a real pain to get reimbursed for business expenses. No pay raises or chance of advancement. Frequent reorganizations and management changes. Old timers control the company and fight change. Lack of communication from management. Incompetent senior management rotates from division to division. Foreign managers make the decisions.
