Bully culture with no work life balance

Pros

There are some great people working at this company however many are stuck and don't want to be there - some last only weeks and leave for a better work culture

Cons

Completely unsustainable business with unrealistic targets and goals. Pushes it's staff at 100 mph with last minute decision making and constant changes. Systems are broke and are disruptive. Just a load of talk with no real substance or understanding of how to get there. Old school tactics, bully culture.

Pros

Insurance is ok. That's it

Cons

Ok this is about Simon a Colas Subsidiary. Life at Simon sucks, management are retards and don't communicate. Most of the equipment is broken and they blame those lower down. Pay ain't great - they get it right most of the time but for a good check expect to work 70hrs a week. They force dispatch drivers in defective equipment because they can't, won't or didn't fix it properly - over and over again. When it goes wrong they blame those lower down who told them it wouldn't work and then write them up. Drivers are subutly pressured to not write up defective equipment. Drinking on the job is an open secret. Safety in name only (SINO) is the name of the game. Management are either drunk, inempt or incompetent as it's impossible that they could be this bad unless it's on purpose.
