Health Tip: Your life and health WILL improve when you leave an oppressive and bullying workplace
Pros
They don't (yet) physically chain you to your desk - so you are still free to leave when it becomes unbearable.
Cons
In my experience Carestream was a very unpleasant place to work. The American senior management operate a culture of bullying and oppression which puts a great deal of unnecessary stress on workers. HR in Carestream is in a very, very sorry state, with a bizarre method of appraisal that simply doesn't stand up to any logical scrutiny. I left Carestream a few months ago and now work in a similarly high-pressure role, with one BIG difference - the company I now work for is managed by people who actually understand the market and actually understand how business works. The result is that, whilst I still have work pressures, the stress levels are way, way lower than at Carestream. If you're thinking of leaving Carestream for any of the reasons mentioned above, my advice - based on my own actual experience - is DO IT!
