Danaher and DBSO - Anonymous employee Danaher Employee Review

Danaher acquired our company. Danaher is all about numbers and metrics with lack of concern for employees or culture, especially on West Coast. The DBSO representatives are sent out from East Coast and Europe. Their interactions demotivate employee idea generation and squash internal innovation. They do not take the time to understand the culture of motivation factors a the Opco's but demoralize the existing management views. The formal training programs have some useful tools but do not use relative examples that apply to the Opco's. The instructors read from prepared scripts and are not able to fulfill the training with relevant or applicable advice. When I asked why - that was "By design" - just communicate the message dont worry about relevancy. The office is stretched thin, they provide a few training classes and do not follow up on effectiveness of the training. Only a select elite amount of people are able to attend. If you want to have a career at your OpCo, you must attend these sessions even though they lack substance. Overall, their employee surveys are not acceptable but little is done to make any changes.
