TR provided opportunities for professional and career development which now no longer exist with lack of new employee on-boarding, business unit induction, and such a focus on sales results win a daily basis that you do literally have to hit the ground running. The company is largely competing in sectors where its products no longer provide competitive advantage, including the most profitable, and where new disruptive companies and technologies will completely change the landscape within the next 3 - 5 years. The executive team has been completely overhauled and is bringing back ideas from the former glories of some of its constituent businesses.. it remains to be seen whether this will actually pay off. The commercial organisation is going through a greta deal of change with parts of sales and marketing going through never-ending changing and becoming ever more complex, creating especially tough working environments in this part of the business. There has been a significant loss of talented personnel and not the same calibre of new blood. The lack of experience with a relatively large business (in comparison to others in its portfolio) shows.. as does the rather unhealthy cronyism.
