- the company uses Activtrak which takes a screenshot of and logs everything that you do in your laptop.
- the company tracks employees' productivity and unproductivity.
- a lot of their systems are redundant and a time waster. They have multiple "productivity" systems that basically do the same thing (e.g., Work Planner)
- bosses are micromanagers. They watch if you are away in Teams and will call you out if your productive hours are low
- the office does not smell nice. It smells musty and unpleasant.
- they hold these townhalls to "listen" and "address" employee feedback but they will just defend the management's decisions even though most employees are unhappy with the policies
- it's evident that the company doesn't trust its employees given the heavy usage of invasive time trackers
- the company hates WFH and they urge their employees to always go to the office. However, they do not make an effort to ease the burden of working on site (no free lunch, no pantry snacks)
- no work-life balance, you have to attend meetings after office hours and even at night
- they are now obsessed with AI which might mean that they'll be laying off employees soon once they have developed their AI agents to automate tasks and workflows
