Expect to be drive to achieve the impossible. - Anonymous employee Precision Castparts Employee Review

Executive leadership drives the business quarter to quarter, with no long term business strategy. Sacrifices are made to make the numbers for the current quarter at the detriment of the future. Mid- level managers are expected to meet numbers that, in some instances, were 30% greater than the company had ever delivered. Managers setting record production levels for several consecutive months, but still falling short of unrealistic business targets, are made to feel as if they had failed. Sic downward spiral from an organizational dynamic standpoint. Seven of the ten members of the local management team have left in the past year.
