Work-life balance is a myth for supply chain employees

Pros

You get what you put in... You can have a great career if all you do is work.

Cons

While they have a good employer value proposition, it is all lip service. SE wants to compete with tech companies or utilize the automotive companies' manufacturing principles and philosophies but don't want to pay for that type of work. Year over year the benefits package gets less competitive. Every year at the end of the year there are layoffs conducted in the shadows so they don't get any bad PR. These layoffs are a result of short-termism plaguing the supply chain organization. Those that stay need to carry on with even more responsibilities and expectations to do it all.

Stealth Reduction in Force

Pros

Was a great company with leadership who cared about people, 3-5 years ago.

Cons

Stealth reduction in force happen often, with NDA and NSA strings attached. HR is not there to benefit and advocate fairly for employee’s but on behalf of business unit VP’s. Unfortunately I should have stuck around to get a nice pay day.
