Truly a great place to work with. This company is a career builder. I am who I am now because of Lexmark.The good thingsThis was the company that made me into who I am. I have nothing but high regard for this company and its leadership. If only it were up to me, I'd like to stay in this company until the last day of my life. This company is so good that I catch myself a lot of times still imagining parking my car in a free parking spot, having my own desk and cabinet, awesome ambiance, heartwarming friends, very family-based schedule, what else can you ask for? I even think my heart is still with this company.
The challengesNo company is perfect. Your pay grade is not properly benchmarked across the equivalent industries based on the level of knowledge and expertise that you have acquired over the years. People sometimes lose their chances of progressing with their career growth. Some tenured managers' opinions can hinder one's career growth during performance reviews, that's why people get stuck and eventually just leave. The most inevitable issue is the recurring workforce reduction. It's like a russian-roulette, that could hit anyone, anytime. Lexmark's working environment and culture before 2011 was perfect.
