Unorganised skip fire of a company that has an untouchable inner circle
Pros
The gate out, when it worked A select few genuinely good people
Cons
• Inner circle of original employees who are connected to the owner that sink anyone they take a disliking too. • extreme micro-management or over delegation (bluffing managers) no in between. leaves employees over scrutinised, over worked, undertrained and overwhelmed. •Managers either don’t care about the well-being of their subordinates or are promoted through who they know to positions they know nothing about and make horrible decisions. • knowledgable, capable employees are lied to to keep them in positions as they are the only ones capable of doing the job and management are not willing to hire/train people appropriately (it took 4 men to do my job when I left) • impossible workload placed on individuals once they are shown to be capable. Overtime optional in the contract (40 hour contracted work week) but you are expected to work 50/60 hours a week. • disciplinary actions seem to be one rule for one for another. There seems to be no steps before final written warning for people who aren’t liked. And those who are in favour fly under the radar time & time again. • management so eager to climb the ladder and look good for the board they go full bore into half-cocked ideas that 90% of the time end up being irrelevant of counter-productive. •Absolutely zero employee input taken into account (recent employee survey was bounced back to employees by management before reaching the board and employees told to improve their answers) • uncompetitive pay with little chance of progression, especially for those working in practical positions (assembly, fabrication, stores & site) • lack lustre / incapable employees seem to just get shuffled round the company by management to cause the most damage possible. •high employee turnover rate have absolutely ruined working atmosphere. • near miss / accident rates soaring due to high workload and high stress. Health and safety call meetings with employees and managers where we were told that no job is so important that you need to put your safety at risk. When the reality seems to be the exact opposite. AVIOD AT ALL COSTS IF YOU VALUE YOUR SANITY AND DIGNITY
