Could be so much better. - Anonymous employee Xyratex Employee Review

It’s good company to work

Very good experience so far

For technical jobs, the opportunity to be involved in the development of a very exciting technology and state of the art products, strong benefit package, work with some talented people,

Lack of strong management, sweatshop mentality, very sad lack of overall direction for company and divisions within company, very poor communication to workforce, poor treatment of line employees and professional workforce by majority of managers. Often one hand does not know what the other is doing. Very political environment has created an environment of general fear of speaking out which curtails creativity at many levels. The general knowledge that once a product is developed it will be off shored to the Malaysia manufacturing site. Vested ownership of engineering is difficult if not impossible in this scenario.
