Pros

Dematic's industry is booming, our technology helps companies like Amazon, Frito-Lay, Walmart to get things done. It is really amazing to see all the pieces of a warehouse working, the conveyors, the sorters, the AGVs, the multi-shuttles, etc. If you like technology and innovation this is the place to be. People are nice and easy-going. It is a fast-paced environment and you never get bored.

Cons

This company is not perfect (which one is it?), it suffers from the same fast-paced environment we live in. Since we need to get things done, sometimes we don't see areas of improvement or ways of streamlining processes. The age of the population is mixed, which is good but also sometimes doesn't help, you may find young colleagues that want to conquer the world with bright ideas and, on the other hand a guy that has been with the company for 30+ years and is ready for retirement, hence new things take time to digest. This is sometimes frustrating. There are really great leaders and others that just got promoted because of time served, you know, old school. You have to be patient.

Weak Toxic Leadership

Pros

- Lots of amazing people in the trenches busting their butt off to overcome the chaos leadership continuously causes - Pay was competitive - Warehouse automation market has an excellent near to mid term future (good space to work in) - diverse workforce, including women in mid and senior level leadership positions

Cons

- Some executive leaders are brutally toxic and incompetent, creating a work environment that was by far the most toxic I have ever worked in - untrustworthy HR - very high attrition rate for new hires - Strategy and tactical oversite is incompetent, creating chaos for those in the trenches - Lots of those amazing people I mentioned in the pros are jaded and broken from too many years under toxic leadership
