Pall reviews

Top down direction, very little input from hourly employess

Management is the worst group of turf-jealous, risk-averse and back-biting people that could ever disgrace a (once) major corporation. Despite ALL of the recent layoffs, all of the cost-cutting measures and re-organization, those managers either stay right where they are, or are promoted away from areas they have almost ruined. The amount of micro-management ongoing daily speaks to the somewhat chaotic nature of production management and the lack of trust that management has in both mid-management and staff. Worker morale is worse than poor. Job stress is high. And you had better negotiate a salary you're happy with right off the bat because your annual raises won't be much more than 1%. If you don't get better than "meets expectations" on annual reviews, you don't get the performance bonus, which is usually a week's pay, depending on how your area did meeting its goals for the year.
