- Very poor management at every level.
- Staff considered a disposable resource - very high turn over, no attempt to accommodate concerns, aspirations etc
- Promotion is based on length of service not merit so there are a lot of incompetent people in senior and management positions.
- Blame culture/scapegoating/bullying are rife - errors and failures are pinned on individuals not discussed as how it went wrong at each stage and can be rectified. People are singled out (often for things they had no involvement)
- Expected to work considerably over contract hours with no compensation
- Very low staff morale and satisfaction, everyone is unhappy in their job
- Punished if contact HR about concerns
- Performance reviews are tokenistic at best, your point of view doesn't matter only that of your manager which is often wildly inaccurate.
- Equipment and programmes not fit for purpose, makes doing job very difficult.
- Ambition and initiative are punished not encouraged
- Disorganised in every aspect
- Firmly believe that having Friday beers and company events makes up for all of the above.
- The person who shouts loudest gets their way regardless of merit
- Poor product and questionable processes makes it hard to get behind
