Business Outlook

Pros

Robotic automation of warehouses is a growing market.

Cons

Management is inept. They don't plan or staff projects appropriately and they don't recognize that their failure to do so has consequences. Instead they blame employees and treat them with disdain. There is a total lack of respect for management by employees that permeates in every group. Employee morale is horrible.

Thank you for also thinking that working with robotics and automation in a growing market is a major pro for our company. To continually improve employee morale we have assembled two employee committees for the office environment and for activities and recognition. It seems like you have some great ideas so please join us at one of our next meetings. Our upper management and executive teams have been working together in order to continually be more strategic and collaborative. Similarly they have also been hosting Lunch and Learns on most pizza Fridays to share the history of each group’s impressive work and what projects they are currently on in order to help keep all employees informed. Please be sure to contact our HR or marketing teams to discuss how we can improve further at info@symbotic.com.
