Pros
The individual teams, I’ve stayed because I love my team and fear what will happen to them when there isn’t someone here to protect them.
Cons
- When new hires verbally question their decisions to join Axalta in the first week, that should be a red flag. - When the “joke” is 6 months at Axalta or like 6 years in the real world, that should be a red flag. - When there is a hiring freeze, including replacement of business critical roles, but all of a sudden there are 10+ senior level Sr Directors and/or VPs hired, that should be a red flag. - When the C-suite employees are threatening staff level employees, that should be a red flag. - When business critical vendors are not paid in over a year because there is no money, that should be a red flag. - When every department is suffering with being short staffed, using outdated and/or inadequately implemented software, having no work life balance, but they continue to relocate C-suite and VP level staff from across the country, that should be a red flag. How Axalta keeps their lights on is mind blowing, but not to worry, I’m sure the C-suite will run it right in to the ground soon. I wouldn’t recommend Axalta to my worst enemy. Save yourself and run as far away from here as you can.
