Gotta love them U-scans, but more importantly, what they signify. In terms of employment, every U-scan site represents one less cashier with which the company must be saddled. In terms of company/corporate profits, sure, the initial cost may seem great, until the depreciation on the device is accelerated within the early years of usage. After that, the only expense is pluging the machine to an outlet, and hiring one person to direct consumers, like lemmings, to the site. Consumers, on the other hand, are of two distinct mindsets: Those who, in their own little world, feel rushed to the point where they do not wish to stand in long checkout lines, created by managements’ decision to hire only two cashiers to operate two of many many dormant checkouts. These, in all probability have, at one time or another, lamanted the layoff scenarios, so prevalent in today’s economy; it is alltogether possible that some of these folks have, themselves, seen a layoff, yet, everytime they choose to perform the duties of an unpaid employee in order to save a little time, they fail to see the big picture. Fortunately, there are many who, either out of “fear” of technology, or because they do indeed see the big picture, resist the efforts of that one employee who smilingly attempts to redirect the lemmings. You decide, people!

I will tell you first hand as a NCR employee who WAS in Dayton and MOVED to Atlanta this mad is a JOKE. He wasn’t raised in any projects…read his bio. He was made to be a CEO and he’s a crummy one at that. The leadership ream esp the ISG group are a joke and they are made of one NYer who was unemployed and another who was in sales in NY and now kinda runs the company. Good luck Atlanta, at least you have real 500 companies to grow your city…NCR’s not one of them. PS the “relationship” with UGA and GT…it’ll NEVER happen they don’t have University Recruiting anymore at NCR!!!!!!

So… Georgia paid $100 million for about a thousand middle-class jobs.

Good work, GA. You’ll never recoup that investment.

Echo NCR Observer’s comments.

Jobs being slashed for the past 10 yrs has made some very talented people leave and left little room for innovation. NCR has been maintaing status quo for the past several years.

What’s the first thing people think of when the hear about NCR (assuming they’ve heard of the company)? Cash registers. How’s that for name recognition for a “technology” company in the 21st century?

NCR lacks 2 key factors that an innovative company needs to succeed – (1) Regard for their employees and (2) Marketing. (1) NCR has no respect for their employees, and they have worked themselves into a situation where only those who are not employable elsewhere remain with the company. In my 2 years with the company, I was in a situation for about a year where I actually had a problem with mold flaking off the ceiling and raining onto my desk during the work day. Management laughed it off, saying that everyone there was in the same situtation. (2) NCR has a “build-it-and-they-will-come” philosophy. Marketing is pretty much non-existent, and when it is attempted, it is done in the context of engineering instead of real-world usability.
