A lost cause! - Avaliação de funcionários no cargo de Funcionário(a) sigiloso(a) na empresa Network Instruments

Great environment. I thought in general management tried hard to make it a good place to work.

The acquisition was handled poorly by the acquiring company. No plan, poor leadership.

Some very smart, friendly people work there. The location is good if you live in the western suburbs.

A lot of people seem to be doing very little. For example, they have a huge marketing department for a company their size where not much is accomplished, and a pretty small sales staff who are under a lot of pressure. Favoritism, while nothing new, is blatant. The engineering dept has their own spacious offices but most employees are in cubes. Pervasive and consistent negative attitudes among employees creates a negative environment so interactions are tense and collaboration is just an idea, not a reality. (i.e. When asked your opinion, it's not really wanted so don't bother). Management works in a bubble and is low on social skills. Defined hierarchy with very little interaction across divides. Almost no diversity among people there.
