Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Lenovo full-time
Pros
Good brand, nice people (well most are) & could be a great employer
Cons
Totally under resourced, especially the data center group, so most people are very stretched. Systems are fragmented and dated.
HR not particularly on the ball but suffering the same effect of too much to do with too few people.Advice to Management
Get a grip on the priorities and stop thinking you’re HPE or Dell. Find a real differentiator and become famous for it rather than just courting lots of alliance partners.

"A company with high aspirations undergoing continual transformation"

Doesn't RecommendPositive OutlookI have been working at Lenovo full-time
Pros
The company direction is made very clear at a Board/SVP level. Customer centricity is a major watchword, and with it's program of transformation, growth has been seen across both Lenovo's core business of PC, along with the acquisitions of the x86 business from IBM and Motorola's Moto Brand.
Lenovo is not scared of betting big, and it puts considerable money and efforts into both its R&D effort with solution partners and its Marketing function. The result has helped re-shape hearts and minds, accessing previously closed markets and customers, double-digit revenue growth in areas such as the Datacenter Group, dominance of the PC market, and a revitalised Motorola Business Group.
Salaries are middle-of-the-road, and benefits include a reasonable bonus, pension, holidays, and a range of flexible contributary and non-contributary benefits.Cons
After working for Lenovo for a number of years it still feels like one is operating in a permanent start-up mode. Some business approaches can appear sound and logical at a strategic level, however the execution of these strategies at a lower strata is often poorly thought through, inefficient, and amateur in both implementation and consideration for both staff and customers.
There is the impression of double standards. On one hand there are clear statements to the market that Lenovo continues to invest in its strategic businesses, whilst on the shop floor the message is one of short-termism, and repeated resource actions which frequently cut too deep, leaving remaining employees over-worked, insecure, and demoralised.Advice to Management
Decide who and what you are and fix your identity crisis. Invest in your people and stop worrying about stock price.
