Eastman reviews

There are too many managers relative to the number of engineers available for execution. Senior leadership invests hundreds of millions in projects with compelling stories but poor returns. Excessive safety red tape becomes an excuse to avoid work or causes significant delays. For instance, a simple change like adding water to a recipe can trigger a month-long review.

Growth is difficult. Career ladder is unclear. Pay is stagnant. People are stuck in the old ways. Very anti-DEI, but in denial that the big issue is nepotism. They don’t invest in their people at all.
