Itron reviews

Has fully taken on the DO MORE WITH LESS mentality. Just because revenue was inflated 1-2 years from GOV funding, we shouldn't act like a starving company with our 2+billion in revenue. Lose employees though they never replace. Just give people more work load. Management doesn't fight for their teams or get job duties out of their department that belong somewhere else. Sometimes feels like mid management is just fluffing their stats to look good to upper mgmt. Lost 1 personal holiday this year - No accrued sick leave program, no performance raises or delayed - why strive for high marks on annual review with no benefit? Little communication or leadership from management. No team building activities or morale boosting events. Way too many jobs duties assigned to each employee to ever be able to do efficient and effectively. Constant feeling of failure because you can never keep up, even for the best employees. You just know mgmt wants you to work 60+ hours per week. NO Training department. Customers have little or no way to get training on products. Major Itron Gap where customers pay price. (This could bring in a lot of revenue.) Training for new employees is horrible. Felt like I was dropped in the middle of the ocean for the first year to just "figure out how to get to shore." Work here if you want to sit in a corporate cubicle (your bubble) with no fun, excitement, or coworker morale.

-Management has their heads up their arses -Hemmorhaging good, talented employees -Stingy as hell (barely any pay raises) -Insane release deadlines for insane PLMs and insane customers -Unnecessary layoffs -HR is a joke -Performance goals are a joke -Company is a joke -Sinking faster than the Titanic. Everyone is jumping ship. When the talent leaves in droves, it's time to look elsewhere.
