Just 1 question for the innovative company,and their top shelf management,

It seems to me that no one really wants to work for them,please feel free to look at jobs they offer on their u.s.a website[under job opportuities at dyson].

What they offer are slave labor rates.

And you dont have to know anything about the business,because anyone that knows the business knows what a overpromised and underdeliver to the consumer they are.

Mole,
Dyson continues to grow at a very quick pace.  New positions are added all the time in order to keep up with this growth.  More SKU's and accounts mean more labor is needed in the field and at the corporate office. 

BTW, look at all the open positions for Apple, Google or any other popular company........does this mean no one wants to work for them?

I'll share my personal experiences with the open positions for employees at many of the Casinos/Hotels in Las Vegas.  The mainstay of employment in LV aside from construction and retail positions is gambling and the support services: Such as waitresses, bartenders [which I am certified to be here in LV] card dealers, cooks, servers, cleaning staff, and so on.  The open positions that are advertised are rarely if ever filled by applicants who submit their resumes.  They are filled from within by persons already on board and looking for career advancement, and/or WORD OF MOUTH recommendations by current employees for friends, relatives, and family members. 

I have met a number of dyson reps who are housewives who used dysons [women are probably the major target market for dyson vacuums].  And they petitioned dyson as a satisfied customer and user of dyson products for employment and were hired. 

I know that the majority of the line workers at the dyson Malaysia plant who produce the dyson products are contractors and subcontractors of dyson and not dyson employees.  Why?  Cheaper to hire and fire.  Best and lowest bidder gets the work.

Airblade,

The little bit I’ve read at Dyson and Monster, Dyson looks good and dare I say fun, nice benefits too.  The part-timer starts out at $15 per hr.  Not bad.        DIB

That's more than a substitute teacher makes an hour in Las Vegas!  And probably most areas around the country.

The last one I met [dyson rep] at a SEARS store here in Las Vegas about 6 months ago was such a dyson rep.  No previous vacuum experience except as a housewife.  She has been replaced since by another woman.  One of the biggest complaints that the store staff had with her was the need to teach her about the current competition and the inherent dyson products' shortcomings.  Apparently, I'm told, she got neither during her dyson training as a dyson product rep.

  • Perhaps James Dyson biggest contribution…  his school (is ok'ed).  Here
  • The DC24 “Motorhead” coming to Japan and a hinting - "In addition to vacuum cleaners, Dyson said he plans to introduce a new electrical appliance in Japan but declined to elaborate...  Here
  • Dyson has a DC24 flash movie that's new on the front page of his Japanese site.  Here

Dyson on t.v. late tonight/early tomorrow morning.  A silly show called “Big” where everyday items are made very large.  This show on the Discovery Channel HD (a rerun) is about making a DC07 (world record) Big.  Dyson sent an engineer named Simeon Jupp to aid a group of builders.  Simeon was one of the few who worked with James in his back yard in the early days and before his success.  Simeon like James comes off as a nice guy unlike what the “Angry and/or Jealous of Dyson Zealots” posters here may believe.        DIB
