Poor compliance, myopic leadership vision and changing strategy.

Director, product management

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Global good product range, global strength, good middle and lower level teams.

Cons

Poor Compliance across the company. management is interested in sale (Value suggest - manage for results). do wrong, give bribe, conflict of interest no problem. Manage to get EBIT. Functional silos and policy for person. ERP is made with huge flaws. Still those people are working in company. poor enforcement on code of conduct. Poisonous work culture.

Business Outlook

Pros

They pay good, liked the work.

Cons

I was fired because I was accused of saying something insensitive, however I was never told what exactly I was accused of. Never given a chance to defend myself, and on top of it fired over the phone after my shift on a friday. I garentee I did not say anything derogatory records anyone. Also communication is lacking, reactive vs pro active, parking is horrific, and no real training.
