Deteriorating internal climate and lack of transparency regarding
What works well?
The company has historically had skilled field teams and recognized operational expertise. However, several recent departures and reorganizations appear to have weakened this dynamic, with a gradual loss of field experience. Operational quality remains possible, but it increasingly depends on the teams still in place. The potential remains real, provided that the workforce is stabilized, the retention of experienced profiles is strengthened, and a consistent managerial dynamic is restored.
What could be improved?
The internal climate has deteriorated significantly in recent times, with management perceived as more top-down and less attentive to the needs of the field. Several operational decisions appear to have been taken without sufficient consultation with the teams concerned, leading to misunderstanding and demotivation. The management of internal changes lacks transparency. The criteria for promotion and the allocation of positions of responsibility are not clearly communicated, which fuels a sense of unfairness among employees. In practice, those who are not integrated into certain internal circles may feel that their progress is limited despite their commitment.
