The top tier leaderships' reputed lack of appetite for Americans continues to rear its ugly head. Strategy is managed by emotion and its not pretty. A large scale change almost for the sake of change is an annual event, and has created a toxic, fearful culture in the USA disrupting both the employee and customer experience. Leadership in Amsterdam does not demonstrate interest or care in the American workforce except for the lovely option availed by leveraging our employment "At Will" laws as a means to taking the sting out of a lack of revenue. Perpetual, ongoing reductions in staff have created a "keep your head down" mentality - a killer to innovation, to speaking up to point out mistakes. Career Paths are a thing of the past, and are based on 'who you know' (who is in power at that time), not what you know (credentials, competencies, experience). This is not a great time to sign on to Philips OR is it like buying when the price is low.... go in at its worst, and cross your fingers it will ramp?
