Tektronix reviews

Danaher and senior Tektronix management doesn't seem to understand that Tektronix designs & builds technology for technologists. Danaher is all about creating efficiency, not about creating technology. Vision about technology is sorely lacking in senior management. Tek needs a technologist with vision to lead the company. Sadly the right people for the job have either left on their own or have been let go because they don’t easily fit into the Danaher mold. That doesn’t bode well for Tektronix maintaining market leadership.

Extremely high expectations regarding workload and number of hours worked. Reluctant to hire hard working and loyal contractors to permanent full time positions. Some Senior Managers have little or no technical background and struggle to relate and understand the efforts put forth by front line System Engineers. "Raises" are laughable and hardly enough to cover the average cost of living increases such as fuel and energy costs (that doesn't seem to be an issue for the folks in sales however).
