Well that explains why they are constantly recruiting senior management staff! Working directly for Henry must be impossible. My guess is that few people stick around for very long in gibson management.

Wanna know why?

Glassdoor.com has anonymous employee reviews of all major companies in the U.S.

Here is what Gibson employees have to say about Henry:

I met a dude in line for concert tickets a few years ago that said he worked at Gibson in Nashville and he said he loved it. He said he did checks on guitars all day. Said it was his dream job. lol

So? Personally, it can't be discussed enough. Maybe if enough people realize what's going on with Gibson, and that gets back to Henry J, he might finally have a psychotic break and have to sell the company!

Wow, the worst company to work for. The anonymous employee comments about working there are pitiful.
