Talented colleagues hindered by challenging leadership dynamics
Pros
There are some incredibly talented and dedicated people at Korry. Many have been with the company for years because they genuinely care about the products, customers, and the people they work with.
Cons
Leadership has become the biggest challenge. Management often seems more focused on satisfying the next level of leadership than supporting their own teams. Expectations are frequently unrealistic, priorities constantly shift, and engineers are expected to do more with less while being held accountable for factors outside their control. Instead of feeling challenged in a productive way, employees often feel set up to fail. Too many talented employees burn out or leave because their efforts go unrecognized and they are blamed when things go wrong. The tone set by senior leadership is discouraging. Employees often feel disrespected, dismissed, or talked down to in meetings, making it difficult to raise concerns or collaborate openly. Rather than fostering trust and accountability, the culture relies on pressure and fear, which ultimately hurts morale, retention, and the quality of the work. The president and his direct reports are not good beings - human factor has been eliminated since TransDigm has taken over.
