Waters reviews

Ceo is a penny pincher saying our stock is growing but really people are leaving and getting laid off but there is no back fill. Classic Corp America of do more with less. There is AI metric everywhere that have a lot of loopholes and flaws that affect your yearly bonus.

- The culture in Milford is deeply toxic. Senior leadership and the C-suite appear completely out of touch while continuing to promote the idea that Waters has a “wonderful culture.” That does not reflect the day-to-day experience of many employees. - Trust in the C-suite leadership team is extremely low. The vast majority of employees do not appear to trust executive leadership, and that should be a serious warning sign. - People leave and are not replaced. While it may not be realistic to replace every person immediately, the pattern here feels extreme. Work is simply pushed onto remaining employees, many of whom are already burned out. - Motivation to go above and beyond is gone in a lot of areas. Employees who try to take initiative often feel penalized rather than supported, so many people do only what is necessary to stay employed. - Some divisions have little to no job growth potential. A few departments seem to value employee development, but they are the exception. Leadership has described development as a company-wide priority, but in practice, there has been little meaningful action. - The constant reorganizations and regular layoffs have seriously damaged morale. It often feels like every new senior leader arrives and launches another reorg within a month or two, creating instability without clear improvement.
