Pluspunten

A great group of hard-working employees

Minpunten

The owner is out of touch with reality and typically is the smartest person in the room, no matter what the subject matter. While he is a brilliant engineer, he seems to believe he is also an expert at everything else. He lives in California, and except for occasional visits, is not available or approachable, and uses remote video conferencing to communicate with the management team. BPM Microsystems is a small company that is run like it is a big corporation; the company has poor morale because of it. There have been two rounds of layoffs in less than six months and a significant number of key employees have left the company for other opportunities. Annual reviews and salary adjustments were few or not at all for years. The "generous profit sharing program" made no payments for years. All the statements in this paragraph are truthful and objective, and are not the product of a "sore loser".

Thanks for the feedback. Your advice is solid, and your criticism is mostly based in facts-- there have been two layoffs in an attempt to get spending in line with revenue. Bottom line, we needed to get leaner to become profitable. It’s always difficult when you have to let friends go, and there were hard choices that had to be made. We’re not out of the woods yet, but indications are strong that the hard choices are yielding good results. In addition, we’re hopeful that the folks from the last layoff can be rehired one we’re back on firm ground. We wish them all the best in whatever they choose.
