Bad Management Running the Show - Engineer Seagate Technology Employee Review

Pros

Great people, lots of long time people but that is changing.

Cons

Management is out of control. They no longer care about the people. Only money. The company looks good on paper but after you work there a while you see it is all smoke and mirrors. Consistent lay offs and upper management do not listen to SMEs. They keep taking away from the employees yet keep asking them to do more. No work from home which is silly in this day and age. Slow sinking ship. Upper management keep hiring their friends who end up costing the company money. Also the new CIO Ravi is hatcheting away at IT without thought to the consequences. I honestly feel sorry for the over worked people who are left and now waiting to get the hatchets during the next round of rifs.

Pros

Great technology for the era of AI. Stock is doing well.

Cons

High performers have been laid off based on market/biz unit goals. Outsourcing/derisking is a thing lately.

Pros

Fast paced workplace. Lots of data to master SQL and data analysis

Cons

Toxic AF. Everybody seems to lower to 60% effort because the risk of getting tired is immense. If you give 100% and have to take a break and someone sees, the big boss will yell with a grumpy neurotic southern old man voice. Trust me, it is very unpleasant. If you are male, don't get hopes up for a promotion if there are any eligible girls. If it isn't done on purpose, then the general culture of cattiness and gossip will accomplish it anyway.
