JLR reviews

Ridiculous decision making by senior leadership team (Directors and above), which in turn drives ridiculous targets, behaviours and culture from those doing the work. Senior management and grades below are invariably stressed out by needing to meet ridiculous cost or timing targets, and because key stakeholder groups have wildly different objectives, staff are constantly grinding against internal stakeholders rather than working as a coherent team with a singular aim. Very little evidence of external benchmarking- a significant proportion of said senior teams appear to have been in the JLR or the old Rover Group for too many years to recognise how the World actually works.

The experience with the fourth boss was disappointing. The manager has no strong character, agrees with everyone and has no his own stand. Downgraded my involvement at work and virtually kept me idle for the last half of year. At this time knowing that the company experiences problems with profitability , he hired another 3 persons to the team, Could not say much about value of two of these new workers, but the third one has no qualifications, no skills and no motivation to learn and work. Just a couple of things that allowed her to take this position: parents at high position at JLR and boyfriend at a high position at JLR. I has been seeing as once strong united team working with enthusiasm was destroyed during one year.
