STRENGHTS

1) The organizational structure is well defined and there is less ambiguity in the roles

and responsibilities defined.

2) The top management was aware that there were some problems in the organization

and was thinking in direction of facing them.

3) The company is in a position to hire qualified professionals and is profitable.

WEAKNESSES

1) Though the company is well structured, the structure has become rigid and resistant

to change.

2) Many employees have gone lethargic and are not fulfilling their duties.

3) There are many faults in the materials issue and various other processes.4) There is a lack of a Personnel department, and thus proper training and development

of employees is absent. Also this leads to high attrition rates.

5) Lack of effective vertical communication channels in the organizations.

6) Creativity and innovation are not encouraged in the organization.
