Sales Operations - Anonymous employee Hitachi Employee Review

Hitachi Construction Machinery feels like a crumbling bridge—outdated, shaky, and built on weak foundations of corporate politics and “Yes Men” culture. Innovation isn’t just stalled; it’s actively suffocated. When I joined, I saw the cracks immediately. I flagged them early, like a mechanic pointing out a broken engine, but instead of fixing it, they gaslighted me into thinking I was the problem. They didn’t want solutions; they wanted silence. It became clear this wasn’t an isolated case when they axed 25 more employees without so much as a whisper of explanation. It was like tossing passengers off a sinking ship to avoid looking at the hole in the hull. This wasn’t strategy—it was cowardice wrapped in PR spin. They ignored the warnings, sabotaged their own team, and called it leadership. Hitachi isn’t just stuck in the past; it’s actively digging its own grave. If they don’t evolve—fast—they’ll be nothing more than a rusting monument to how not to run a company. The market doesn’t forgive, and neither will history.
