Pros
The people I work with and my immediate supervision have always been great and a driving force in staying in the hope that one day Kodak could return to being the once great company it used to be.
Cons
New Executive Leadership creates an unpleasant work environment. CEO runs the company by instilling fear and intimidating the employees, He constantly tells the employees “if you don’t like it I’ll help you pack your office”. Took away our flexibility to work from home that has been in place for years. Office environment is bleak and depressing. Old decaying, empty buildings, a reminder of the great company Kodak used to be but no longer is. Closed our cafeterias, now we are forced to eat unhealthy food out of vending machines. Haven’t had any raises or promised performance bonuses in 8 years. No professional development. Training is basically nonexistent, new employees are forced to learn what they can from their coworkers. Stagnated careers, no promotional opportunities because the company is always in the downsizing mode. Never ending layoffs, furloughs and pay cuts. Shrinking benefits.
