Business culture based on back stabbing and favoritism
Pros
Schedule allowing for time off. Lots of legacy knowledge.
Cons
While the hierarchy and management preach and encourage teamwork and trust, the management not only asks but encourages those who want to be promoted to spy, rat out, and drive a bus over co-workers thereby negating any trust or team cohesion. When coming into the office as new employee it is immediately decided how far you will go and how much management will train and encourage growth. Promotion criteria is changed regularly to ensure the person management wants can move up. Upper brass continues to make terrible decisions for dispatchers which are labeled as “progress” but really are decided without thought of a dispatchers job or experience. Favoritism runs rampant in every office. People have left the company and come back to be promoted over those who have remained repeatedly over the years. The management within the Energy Delivery Operations will move people around to get a variety of experience who they want to be promoted higher up, especially in Columbus, but also in all other offices. The CEO is still receiving her double salary bonus while laying off contractors and full-time employees AND promoting dozens into new roles despite a hiring “freeze”. Offering those close to retirement the option to leave to cut the budget.
