Seems the policy is to get rid of hundreds of years of experience then turn around and advertise to hire a newbee willing to work for cheap. I mean, I understand that Philips is hurting and needs to purge anybody with a pension but new kids can't do the job straight out of the gate.
Seems this can't be true but is it?
Welcome to corporate America. This business model is not new or unique to Philips. Many companies in the industry and the corporate world in general are moving in this direction. Younger typically means hungry, aggressive, energetic, and not beaten down by the system. Sure, often times the less experienced can take a lower salary and be motivated to earn more and climb the ladder. Keep in mind someone gave you a shot at one point and you were young and inexperienced as well.
That's a joke right? Everybody I know started in this business with loads of experience then went to detailed schools before going to the field where we trained under a senior FE. People start now with some education and experience but the schools are more of an intro, then they are just given sites to flail on.
Uncle Phil used to be a professional organization, now its a hack! Maybe you are in the extra special super zone.
Maybe you're an old disgruntled moron.
one thing this makes me think.
after 2014 its funny how many guys who were over 50 and hired before 2000 just disappeared. Not retired or layed off or fired or even quit, just vanished and never heard of again.
This thread is boring and not productive.
Next!
Im so done with this company. No one at corporate cares about us facing the customers, this includes the ZVPs. I cant get simple reports, quick responses, a straight forward response or realistic numbers. Sales hasn't hit their numbers in years and service sees a greater negative impact. All the accountability falls on me and the FSEs. We cannot save ourselves to profit. 70% margin is asinine. My resume has been updated. Know of any worthwhile company hiring?
