Sulzer AG

In the short term, Sulzer could be a possibility. In the longer term, almost everyone will come to the same conclusion. Even those who have profited from it. A company that looks interesting from the outside, but after a longer analysis reveals major weaknesses.

In over 20 years, one could experience a great change at Sulzer. A company that used to live its mission statement and values mutated into a squeezed lemon after the not entirely legal takeover of a major shareholder. The company no longer focuses on site development. Everything operational is relocated to low-wage countries in the shortest possible time without even monitoring the Knoff-Hoff transfer. Product quality suffers and customers jump ship. Afterwards whole divisions are dissolved. The company does not focus on long-term growth targets, but on the fastest possible profit, which can only be achieved through company acquisitions. In spite of great moral preaching, wage dumping and inadequate personnel management are still being carried out. Invoices to customers as well as expenses and even salary payments are sometimes incorrect. Sulzer should once again focus on site development. Feel the pulse of the market and keep and rebuild knowledge. Then this company could also exist on the European market.
