Unfortunately, SieMatic's best days seem to have passed and the once iconic trail blazer of the industry has stumbled into one quality crisis after another. Although the numbers are kept under lock & key, sales continue to dwindle and product quality remain subpar, thus SieMatic finds itself in financial distress. Possibly a sale to private equity and a restructuring of senior management would help generate new momentum. It's a very hierarchical place and the true corporate culture seems dated and dusted. There are more people leaving than there are coming... do the math.
