In my five years at Segra, I had 4 different Executive Team level supervisors. Two did not know what they were doing. Three tried repeatedly to have me removed from my position. I only found this out after I no longer worked there.
I received one of their company rewards and was laid off three months later. If you think you're part of a family at Segra, you're not. Segra is a corporation. Always remember that.
Segra suffers greatly from "the left hand not knowing what the right hand is doing." Routinely, projects would be handed down on high to only have the answer go back up the chain that a similar project already existed and/or was finished. I survived through three RIFs (Reduction In Force) in my time. One time almost 1/3 of our office was "let go."
For almost two years Segra had a contract employee (who had repeatedly asked for full-time status) train incoming people for the position the contract employee wanted. If they were good enough at their job to train others, why weren't they good enough to have the position?
They'll also lay off people who were the sole administrators of a system. Then when the system breaks or needs edited no one will know how to fix it.
Nepotism also abounds. Experience and talent don't add up to much when people are promoted to management that have 5-10 years less experience than the people they manage because they are liked by an E-Team member.
