Pros

Great people, fun place, nice work life balance, strong HR team, sensible work ethics. strong sense of culture. stable.

Cons

Great foundational products and technical talent. However, centralized strategic decisions within specific business units lacked domain expertise, causing significant product misalignment. True commercial growth requires stronger, market-informed leadership accountability.

Pros

There used to be a lot great people working there that knew their what they were doing and took good care of their customers but they have been all run off by the incompetent leadership.

Cons

The sales team is a joke, the product team a shambles and customers are not happy. Employee moral is at a all time low. The answer to these problems was a management book called "Employees First" that Chairman Ian Jenks had to sign for extra inspiration before they were distributed to all employees. He was not the author. Any how, he failed realize that by handing out these books with great fanfare, he might just create an expectation amongst employees that their treatment may improve, it did not. There was no mistake however that senior staff certainly put themselves first and employees would remain, well last. Employee turnover is astonishing and so much talent is gone, replaced by well intentioned new employees that lack the skills to turn this company around and have no idea what a mess they are getting themselves into.

Brady Technologies Response

Thank you for your feedback. It has been quite the journey for us since the book you mentioned was distributed more than a year ago and a lot has changed since. We reorganised the business, conducted Brady’s first ever companywide employee engagement survey, listened to the responses and acted on the feedback. We are now in the middle of an interim survey to review progress on that plan. We are still on a journey, but our 2018 business plan is completely focussed on connecting with and delivering to our customers, providing opportunities and support for our teams and retaining the excellent people we have here at Brady.

Pros

A company with well designed products.

Cons

Ian Jenks is certainly inexperienced in the commodities area, which leads to the majority of employees rolling their eyes whenever he speaks. The recent restructuring process lead by Ian Jenks destroyed many functional aspects of the organization.
