Good Company
Good Company
A lot of good likeable people, nice pace to work. People who join company tend to stay for a long time. I worked there for 32 years though not consecutively. It was the best place I worked at and I was glad I returned to it when I was hired back.
Not many, but I would say it has a corporate mentality.
A lot of information doesn't get disseminated down from upper management. When the company was smaller news spread quickly and management was more approachable.
Most people there I had no idea what their names were by the time I left.
I was laid off unceremoniously >> there is the door you go through it to leave the property. When people retire they celebrate them leaving. When they are laid off you don't even get a thank you card.
Seems like there was a lot of empire building by the time I left. Quite a few times I was told "don't say that, you will make us look bad, they don't need to know that". . . Like what?? I'm just trying to get things done around here. Is there a problem with being honest?
