Victaulic is an old company, there’s large amount of tech debt that’s been accumulated over the years. Tech has been an after thought for most of the company’s history until recently. A lot still needs to change before it gets up to modern standards.
Management is old school and is made up of Easton locals who worked there 30+ years ago. Young talent is feared and discouraged from rising up the ranks. Nobody wants to lose their job, but at some point you need to hire or promote someone into management who isn’t 50+ and grew up in Lehigh Valley PA.
