Georg Fischer - North Americas

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

The whole GF business is in general well run, from Switzerland to the Americas great products and good people. The Americas manager is great and taking the company in the right direction. The European, Asian, and Americas all cooperate. Over all a Great Global Company.

Cons

The broken spoke in the Georg Fischer wheel is their Signet Division in El Monte, California. The management team has an inward focus, is insular and has a not invented here attitude. It is a division that is reluctant to deal with customer issues. The Sales team is treated like adversary's not partners.

Pros

Opportunities exist for employees interested in automation or technical process improvements.

Cons

There is a strong sense of internal competition within teams rather than collaboration. An unhealthy work environment managed by conflict managing styles make everyone try hard to be a fav pet. Decisions around automation often seem rushed or implemented without sufficient consideration of practical impact.
