Chaotic and going down hill - Engineer Packsize Employee Review

Pay, learning, culture, experience, leadership, product.

Growing company with growing pains

Everyone at the lower levels of employment are fantastic to work with.

Middle management and above lack understanding of what the company actually does. Ideas are pulled from books being read by middle managers, randomly implemented without context of how they can be implemented in the specific departments operational environment and lower level leadership are instructed to implement these newfound ideas without any direction, or any instruction on how they will actually improve efficiency or productivity for the workforce. The company does not promote from within anymore. Often times, internal candidates who apply to postings for new roles do not get acknowledged. Middle management and above are convinced bringing in external candidates is the right way to go. Company has undergone several “restructurings” over the last couple of years since the new Global leadership team has taken over. Many people are let go during these restructurings in an extremely unprofessional manner. Company is fumbling through a major transition currently. My advice to any potential job seeker is to avoid this company. Micromanaging is the name of the game at this point with Packsize.
