Employees are severely overworked and are fearful of the next round of layoffs which are certain to come.
Interacting with a few dedicated, reasonable colleagues.
Divisions need more autonomy to do better.
Salaries are below any published reports.
Compensation is 10-15% below average. As are bonuses.
Too many meetings, too much work, too much conflict. It's really bad.
There isn’t any collaboration. Every issue is an opportunity to make a coworker look bad.

The stock is down 70% in 2 years. Safe to say the leadership team needs to get better at anything and everything. It’s hard to imagine a monkey making random decisions could do any worse.
