OK but Downsizing

Technical support specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay for a hard working employee. Satisfying positions while they last. A good company but may be purchased by another company.

Cons

Layoffs every year which make it difficult to feel safe. Not enough vision to be successful in today's environment. They may not be around for long.

Great career development opportunities at Kodak in return for paltry compensation.

Production manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Kodak offers great development opportunities. They have invested a lot of time and money into my career growth and development. On the job you get exposure to state of the art business practices and fundamentals that can be transferred to any organization. The people are also great at Kodak, there are very few tyrants and ego maniacs in management. The culture is very open and honest where micro-managing is non existent.

Cons

There is a trade off in working for Kodak, you get great training but poor compensation. Another downside is being a Canadian employee, it would appear they are trying to pull all the business back to Rochester or sending it to Asia. There won't be much of a Kodak presence in Vancouver in the years to come.

Sic transit gloria mundi!

Research scientist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good pay, decent benefits, work/life balance. They were good to me (while it lasted)... It is a rather conservative place, but co-workers are nice in general and helpful when you don't directly threathen their position.

Cons

Stress, continuous downsizings, lack of support for professional and personal advancement The work environment is corrupted by the ever-present manace of being the next downsized ("right-sized!"). Rochester is nice, but 5 months of winter is too much...(nothing to do about this).
