Welbilt Reviews

Where do you even start with this Barnum and Bailey operation? Lack of internal controls, leadership that is out of touch with the business, and upper management stuck in the 80's. This company should have never went public and that is evident in the fact that the CEO ditched this place before the stock price tanked. Welbilt did not have, nor does it have today, the leadership to move this company forward. When I interviewed at Welbilt, I was told by HR that they were working on improving the culture. Sadly, I saw it get worse and not better during my time there. I doubt this company has a future under the current leadership. This place needs cleaned out from the director level and up. During my time, I was told time after time of the problems that existed years ago and personnel that should have been shown the door years ago and they were still there. Nothing changed. Bureaucracy runs wild at Welbilt, which creates log jams and keeps projects from getting done. Simple projects do not get done because 15 people have to agree to them, even though they know nothing about the project. Finally, when times get tough the first thing they do is lay people off, but never do management positions get laid off. You have VP's reporting to VP's and layer after layer of management. In short, this place can't even put together a competent org. chart.

Appauling IT support. Software that is vital to the role, not up to the job. Disconnect between departments. Schism. Management that know the software is poor but try to make you think it's you that is faulty.. some very nice staff there but also some all too eager to throw you under the bus. No windows open in the heat of summer and air con not switched on to keep a few happy over the suffering of the many. Pidgeon feeders on window sills are breeding ground for all the germs and disease that pidgeons carry. .. Awful customer service. Some staff feel it is acceptable to talk down to customers of ethnic origin. Will pile on responsability to your work load without having the manners to discuss it with you first. Staff bad mouthing past colleagues.
