- Poor performing employees are abundant and often not disciplined; most likely a result of complicated HR procedures for discipline all focused on covering the company's legal interests instead of "doing what's right"; coincidentally a "core value".
- Not a lot of training opportunities and/or untimely and unrelated to job duties
- Pay not commensurate with performance
- Complex system to determine pay, promotions are hard to come by and tied more to years of service
- Lower levels are easier to get promoted up. Upper levels become slow and far between. Bands are crowded higher up leading to "crowding"; making promotions few and far between.
- New benefits package spun as "better", but more out-of-pocket compared to old plans.
