The company's segment is very competitive. With razor thin margins and constant need to reduce margins, the company tends to lag in the planning arena and only has knee jerk reactions when business needs change. First instinct is to lay off people with almost no accountability OR reduction of force at the top levels. Oddly enough, the top level execs (primarily those that have been with the company for a while) are the reason was declines or losses but they are not let go. It is completely bizarre how such senior 'adults' act like elementary school children and point blame at other teams and their own staff. It is insanely unprofessional and there's just no accountability where there needs to be.
The talent pool is mediocre at best. If you think you will learn anything and enhance your career, you are dreaming. In fact, you will come out dumber then when you went in. Processes are dated, management is resistant to change anything, and most areas were 'enhanced' at some point by less then qualified people so you will catch errors and someone will explain a work around (completely disregarding the root cause) so you will spend 8 hours on a 30 minute task.
The location doesn't help either. Good luck trying to hire decent talent there and retaining them. Smart people leave as soon as they realize what's going on here. Some folks are extremely deceitful, which is probably why they lasted this long. If you catch on to their lie, run, because your days would be limited especially if you are not one to play along.
