Delhi

Former Employee – worked at Eastman Kodak full-time for more than 10 years

ProsAn amazing organization - with leadership in all the segments it operated in for over 100 years - a brand which was amongst top 10 on top of the mind recall till recently. Great connect with the consumers, excellent distribution network , & great product linage !

ConsA company with great brand and product range and the great team - failed to take the onus of developing new business lines for their consumer business - when they had the right skill set with in the organization. The leadership failed in recognizing the fact that the change of business model world wide offered excellent opportunity for India to develop products & services which met the consumer expectations - which could be scaled world wide making India as most enviable business model in the world - which could be replicated in other countries .

Advice to Senior ManagementThe organization still enjoys huge connect to consumers - which should not be lost . With all the businesses Kodak does , although it touches very many lives every day - the consumer business has been the very face of Kodak all the while. Kodak must sustain and build up on this to resurrect itself back to glory !

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Rochester, NY (US)

Former Employee – worked at Eastman Kodak full-time for more than 10 years

ProsPast - Training and growth opportunities, excellent co-workers, very good salaries and bonuses, ability to work with some very intelligent people

ConsCurrently - Very little training and growth opportunities, ever shrinking company, Chapter 11, Upper Management that is out of touch, zero to little pay increases, Same Management Team that lead us into Chapter 11 is still running the company, Useless Board of Directors, a once great company is just a sliver or what it used to be.

Rochester, NY (US)

Former Employee – worked at Eastman Kodak full-time for more than 10 years

ProsI left years ago when company was still making positive margins and it was a consumer business. Many of us former Kodak employees still rooting for Kodak and Rochester (best 14 years of my life)

ConsAfter years of downsizing, bad news, etc, the Kodak culture needs to find the guiding light again.

Advice to Senior ManagementI am sure you have your hands full with the bankruptcy recovery opp. When I left EK in 2004, I went straight into a bankruptcy with Delta Airlines, but they survived it and keep growing. I wish the best to all leaders and never forget that the compqny is made up of people, not just assets

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
