Plug Power reviews about "technology"

Grew too fast. Upper management needs to pivot.

Leadership and direction of major decisions

Priorities are not well aligned across teams which makes collaboration difficult.

- This is more related to the teams and not the company, but some people can create gossip out of jealousy. Some managers are aware of this issue but do not handle it in the best way. - Some people hold important roles but are not nice to work with. - Upper management and executives are overly optimistic about the industry and do not manage the company well. When the company doesn't do good, the employees get affected by often and unexpected changes in company structure or layoffs.

- The upper management changes priorities constantly and makes you work on something for 6 months then shelve it. - I worked on about 5 different large projects, only 1 saw the light of day. This wasnt from bad work or failing to make a strong engineering product, it was from upper management just saying nvm lets do something else.

Terrible company culture. Multiple members of senior management were essentially 'bought and paid for' by one individual in Management and many came from the same company that starts with an S. The company has a referral bonus that this one manager exploited and hired multiple of his cronies into various management positions, including Human Resources. This company only values relationships and not work ethic. Nepotism and favoritism run rampant here... It wouldn't surprise me at all if quid-pro-quo goes on here...Because this is so blatant, morale is terrible among the staff and people feel overworked and underpaid. Numerous people have given up working hard and trying and have openly talked about how the company will not promote them because they are not management's favorites. -so why should they try if they won't get promoted?... Management has openly talked about who they like and don't like in front of employees like we're still in a High School setting, and many members are extremely unprofessional. There is also a lot of bullying that goes on here that is sponsored by management that HR does little to nothing about. There's a lot of racism and discrimination at various levels that go on here. The majority of my team and multiple other people within the building openly talk about how they're looking for better opportunities, quote: "where they don't feel like paid slaves". The work-life balance here is horrible. I've witnessed many things that I never thought would happen at a workplace, including people working in altered states of mind and operating heavy equipment and machinery. This has honestly been the worst experience I've had in my career and cannot wait for my opportunity to get out of here, aside from quitting and unfortunately, it's getting closer and closer to that reality. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. Thank god for them getting help from the government with bailouts because they continuously find ways to run this business straight into the ground.

Chaotic, no standards or procedures are followed

Low Pay, Management Unclear on Expectations
