Pluspunten

ETS was once a great place to work for. In my tenure here, I have met some of the most talented individuals. Interaction with such talented people had allowed me to grow professionally and personally. Many friendships were forged here and will remain long after I leave.

Minpunten

To reiterate what most reviews state, recent leadership evolution over last two years has been most dramatic transformation, and not in a good way. New CEO, Amit, is not exactly a transparent guy. He surrounded himself with a bunch of talkers just like him who manage up well, but have no clue about what to do with the products. These people are inexperienced, and in many instances straight up liars. They are unable to deliver, so they surround themselves with a bunch of other high paid incompetent individuals to deliver results for them. Needless to say, those highly paid individuals lack the skills they need too. At one point, there was a new AVP hired almost daily. Amit created a culture of smoke, and this culture is prospering within ETS. Everything is going to India, and more jobs to follow next year. VSP packages were only the beginning. There is no growth in products at ETS, so the trend of cutting costs and outsourcing will continue. CFO does not care about anything or anyone, and CIO is unwilling to stand up for the IT organization. There are no more truth tellers left in the organization. Where is Kurt Landgraf?

Pluspunten

Support of immediate management and coworkers makes coming to work every day a pleasure.

Minpunten

Where to start... First, the employee performance evaluation process and methodology has changed from 1) performance vs your job description to 2) OKRs which were completely unattainable and meaningless at every level to 3) rocks and outcomes which again have very little to do with the day to day jobs of most employees. It seems the burden for goals and objectives and performance management has shifted from management to employees as they try to define a methodology that holds only doers responsible for the company's success. All this since Amit Sevak took over. Management manipulated the questions in a recent employee survey to force responses that made it look like there was improvement year over year. Of course, when you add a new President between the employees and the CEO peoples opinion of senior management is improved. Of course when you shift the focus to immediate management from senior management, the responses will be improved. Try issuing the exact same survey as the prior year and see how much "real" improvement there was in the numbers.
