Thread regarding Emerson Electric Co. layoffs

Free Advice

Emerson management keeps tabs on this site so here’s some free advice.

  1. Hire an outside firm to do independent evaluations of your current leadership. Just because they are hitting numbers doesn’t mean people aren’t running to leave certain divisions.
  1. Understand that hiring new employees at higher salaries than current employees will drive more employees out.
  1. Commit to wfh. Don’t say it’s a trial run that you have every intention of pulling later.
  1. What is the 5-10 year plan? Pushing the stock price up is temporary.
  1. Consider the message Emerson sent with layoffs only to be hiring now. Why would anyone want to work for a company that does that?

I wouldn’t waste my time trying thinking how to fix a company that has a culture of incompetence for at least 2 decades.

There are simply too many issues with too many divisions.

I left and it was the best decision for me and my family. I’m no longer coming home angry about the dozens of mistakes that I saw the company doing that day, and every day. I no longer feel like I’m underpaid, and like my voice doesn’t matter.

Also the stock price being high will embolden people to think everything is fine, and for all the terrible management to think their decisions are good.
