Seagate Technology reviews

Poor communications across the board, silos, management heavy and management does not listen or care to listen. Outsourcing to companies whose staff are not properly trained causing more rework for the employees resulting in a higher expense to the company. With the higher costs not being tracked nor are those expenses shown in the ROI or project totals.

This company is very stingy with employees. To cope with the economic downturn, they told us to use up our 2008 vacation and that there would be no layoffs. A month later, in January, 2009, they laid off a large number of employees. A VP spoke to us as a group, claiming to regret the decision. But, the day before he was laughing gleefully immediately after the CEO announced to directors and above that the layoff would take place. They have always managed to add insult to injury, in my experience.
