Retains Known & Reported Unscrupulous Employees

Pros

People know how to get things done: they abhor and avoid red tape when possible. Very scrappy. There's a handful of open and honest managers who know how to ask the right questions and move things forward. Lots of flexibility with employee time and work schedule.

Cons

Fixed mindset with many: Lots of old school people still stuck in their ways: not open to change or just ignore new process or tools. Many been there 25-30 years. A fairly large share of bullshitters who slip their way through with customers in hiding critical information. Managers who have abusive behaviour just get moved around and are not disciplined.

Pros

At Celestica, you are challenged with navigating human capital to work through the challenges of the microchip and semiconductor world for products built and dispersed all around the world. I enjoyed the team I worked with proving that difficult tasks can get anything done with persistence and mutual flexibility.

Cons

The covid experience put incredible strain on several processes. To this day, these challenges are universally felt across all of these archetypes of companies and will be for sometime.
