Greed at the top is eroding innovation, product quality, morale, and talent. The “warring tribes” of Motorola 1.0 has been replaced with an overemphasis on quarterly stock performance. Some facts to be mindful of prior to accepting a role here: - Finance dictates quarterly “silent RIFs” which HR carries out. Elimination of roles based on financial targets vs performance is very demoralizing and disruptive. - Acquisitions are becoming weirder and less able to be integrated into the broader business. Some senior level talent brought in via acquisitions has no idea how to operate across a 20,000+ global employee base. Just because you CAN buy companies tangentially related to the core business doesn’t mean you should.
Great people but poor pay and leadership issues. bad pay lots of leadership issues
Loads of overhead that force near constant RIFs on the teams doing actual work. Greed at the top has really hit the folks in the trenches hard. Career progression is not a priority.
