Management sets metrics and KPI's based off of how much work the senior engineers that have been with the company for decades are able to accomplish on a weekly basis. These metrics are NOT attainable on a consistent basis for the newer engineers (less than 5 years experience). Management seems to take the side of R&D and Technical Account Managers anytime there is a conflict between these departments and ours. I was terminated out of the blue. No warning, no write-ups. They essentially said that I wasn't good enough and shut my system down within 30 seconds of termination.
