Plexus reviews

The company constantly bounces back and forth between an emphasis on quality versus an emphasis on quantity, creating an atmosphere where you could be reprimanded or rewarded for doing the same job, depending on which they were working on that week. The company has an enormous need for skilled workers, and will train people to fit the roles they need, but they don't offer wages comparable to their competitors. They constantly do employee surveys to measure employee job satisfaction but refuse to listen to the pleas of the employees for a better work/life balance or more money. They have a habit of stifling the growth of skilled and motivated employees because they "wouldn't be able to maintain the current rate of production without that employee". In reality, it's considered too much hassle to train someone up as a replacement for that individual. This leads to the talented/motivated people being stuck in menial jobs while those who are viewed as "moveable" get fast-tracked through the ranks. That leads to managers who are supposed to be able to provide goals, direction, and support to their subordinates being incapable of doing this because they don't fully comprehend the processes and everyone ends up working to catch up with the workflow rather than planning ahead, which in turn leads back to rushed and low quality work. It's because of this cycle that they've managed to lose a lot of business over the past several years.

Implementation-of-the-week management culture. Upper management spends too much time preaching/lecturing to the boots on the ground, and far too little listening to them. Middle and lower management seem to find it difficult to communicate interactively, as well. The pay is substandard. Diversity is fine, as long as it conforms exactly to their way of thinking. We continue to hemorrhage the good people, as they leave for less frustrating, better paying opportunities.
