Siemens

Good people to work with, engaged and competent.

A good name to have on your resume, but it's a trap to stay there too long.

Good compensation package, but not outstanding.

The gas turbine business is a plodding dinosaur, losing its market to faster, smarter dinosaurs in an industry that is becoming obsolete. There are massive layers of bureaucracy and mindlessly counterproductive procedures, favoritism especially among the Germans, a fractured and uncommunicative organization, and unprofessional treatment of professional people. Management spends far too much time congratulating themselves, but for no good reason. Energy has leaned on the corporation to try to buy their competitors, but that strategy has about run its course.

Get yourselves out of the way while there's still time for someone else to save the business. The biggest problem is you.
