PPL reviews

Working under the constant fear that if you make any mistake you will lose your job. Those mistakes can range from anything obvious to anything upper management wants to define as an error in order to punish a non-favorite employee. Promotions for undeserving individuals who get to move up in the corporate ladder every few months, only because they are favorites of upper management, not because they are capable of performing in the new role or even in their current role. Many of those individuals will trample on those under them in order to advance their own career. Department is constantly under staffed because of such a high turn over rate combined with how long of a training process new hires must undergo.

Driven by capital work. Everything contracted out and contractors dictate the terms to the company. Culture is one of fear and siloed. No one wants to own anything for fear of reprisals if wrong. If you’re fortunate to be on the in crowd you’ll do fine. If you can’t play office politics you won’t go anywhere. Capital spend is drying up and management is already talking budget cuts and layoffs. Age discrimination is rampant. There are no mangers over 50. Thank god I have only few years until retirement.
