Weyerhaeuser reviews

Possibly the most disorganized and chaotic IT environment I have ever seen. Weyerhaeuser has a long history of selling off bits of the company and downsizing staff at the same time which sets the mood there. Contractors do all the real work and they choose the cheapest contractors they can find, and you get what you pay for. There are three separate silo'ed IT departments that do not work together well and duplicate or contradictory projects may be going on at the same time.

An over 100 year old company which was built on creating sustainable growth and results for your grandchildren's generation has now evolved to caring only about the short term results to the shareholder. The company has progressed from 55,000 employees (with too much bureaucracy) to a 13,000 person company with no soul. Too leaders are only good at figuring out how to sell off everything for cash vs the ability to make those businesses successful. The engagement of employees has been slowly eroding in the last 5-10 years with senior leadership continually demonstrating their lack of respect and regard for the people who have built and sustained this formerly great company. Most employees were initially excited about the energy of the new CEO, but after a year it appears he is driven by ego and his short term name for himself.
