Gilbarco Veeder-Root reviews

Gilbarco is very quick to lay people off. Several times I saw good people that have done very well at other companies let go because they were used as an executive scapegoat, happen to be on the wrong project at the wrong time or simply to make the quarterly numbers. They do not appreciate nor care about hanging onto to experienced people. they hardly ever look to advance people from within the company.

The organization is very political...to a major fault. The politics create a culture of "Bus drivers" and people throwing people under those buses. Often the goals create major conflicts between departments which actually drives waste into the overall system (opposite of lean). Too short term focused (month/quarter) with regard to finances which doesn't allow people to implement the long-term strategies that will will really make the difference when it comes to quality and customer satisfaction.
