This company is a thinly-disguised Chinese sweat shop. They want the absolute best workforce for below industry average cost and then squeeze as much productivity out of them as possible. China likes to be told how wonderful everything is, so management sets asinine goals for the U.S. to hit to please the Chinese overlords. Management is conditioned to tell the rank and file how smart and talented they are to stroke their ego and make them think they are a valued part of the company in exchange for long hours, nightly meetings, and laughable pay increases. They lie to your face about job growth, opportunities, and expansion to keep morale just barely high enough to keep things going for another quarter or two. If (when) goals are not met, it's mostly the competent, capable people who are blamed and laid off as spineless management postures excuses to shift the blame from themselves onto others. I've actually heard an SVP once confess that he "Had no idea what he was doing." And these types of people are supposed to be revered as great leaders? They are absolute muppets.
