New Applicants Beware. Smoke and mirrors.

Pros

I Cannot think of anything positive to say.

Cons

Worst managers/leaders possible can be found at Dematic. A 200-year-old company that operates like a mom-and-pop shop. Promotions are based on incestuous relationships and those who just do what they are told so the bad preforming managers can keep their positions. Worst form of communications – no clear direction – talk a big talk and cannot deliver. CEO of Dematic blames the employees for not taking responsibilities. Managers throw there people under the bus to cover there tracks. Processes: they are constantly being reinvented and changed. They make it up to as they go. Safety is an issue. Business outlook for 2023 is poor. They have been laying off people and keeping the dead weights. KION has hired an outside firm to evaluate Dematic for restructuring. HR is a joke. DON’T WASTE YOURTIME APPLYING. Oh yes, they don’t pay the market rate although they tell you otherwise. Every few years they layoff people. STAY AWAY BAD MOJO.

Pros

Dematic pays well. You have your base salary and anything over 90 hours in a two week period is "straight" time. When you commission a site. You can easily work 12+ hour days. All frequent flier miles, hotel points, and rental car miles you keep. I felt Dematic treated people well.

Cons

The traveling. I was supposed to do 35% travel. That quickly turned into 40-45% b/c of manning and supply issues. Then travel became nightmarish. Due to airlines not Dematic. I couldn't do it anymore.
