GEA Group reviews

- Upper leadership does not live company values No Integrity – They ignore the laws for the dollar No Responsibility – They have eliminated healthcare for targeted locations - Leadership is too focused on the shareholders. So much so, they have forgotten to take care of the customer and employees. It’s just a matter of time before the shareholder gets pissed too - Completely reorganized a great company into a disaster of a mess - Let go all internal IT and outsourced to Accenture Common to have systems down weeks at a time - Clearly targeted the older employees during layoff Some employees were even directly told by their managers that they were picked to be cut because they were the oldest on the team! - Outsourced accounts payable Company now is notorious for not paying bills on time - Vendors and temp agencies are now refusing to do business with us - Cut off notices / threats from utilities seem to be a normal thing around here. They have money but are so disorganized they can’t seem to pay on time. - Centralized all management in Europe Most of the new managers had no to little experience managing others, now expected to manage global teams yet have no clue - Many managers have been placed into unrelated fields/roles during restructure making them completely incompetent to lead their new teams - Many employees have been placed into unrelated fields/roles during restructure making them completely incompetent to perform their tasks - Employees are generally very dissatisfied about leadership and direction - The turnover for HR is extremely high - Most departments are understaffed and unable to fill positions

Pay is lower than the competitors. Compensation has been poor over the course of seven years.
