A Terrible Place to Work

Pros

Loved my work. Some lovely people.

Cons

Abusive training and immediate team and environment. Out of control bureaucracy. People communicate with corporate and lie and blow out of proportion small issues resulting in people being fired by off site management. Jerks and incompetent upper managers relying on underpaid labor to execute everything. Most bosses have no idea what the labor force does.

Pros

The pros are historic. The brand is famous.

Cons

The parent company Danaher destroyed the experience. Do not work for Pantone. My team ran rampant and was sexist and abusive and management allowed it. The parent company had v weird expectations that were not observed - only when they visited. The parent company was legally aggressive and forceful terminating employees. There was no interest in employees whatsoever except as mindless drones - anyone on the manufacturing floor was treated as a mindless “cog”. No additional training. Tools provided for testing that did not work. Incorrect gauges resulting in massive losses of time and resources- people were penalized for caring and rewarded for apathy. Uncaring not present upper management. A real unwinding of a color juggernaut. A terrible experience. I loved my job and hated everything else. Terrible pay. Endured verbal abuse from my co worker daily who was allowed to run rampant.
