Worst place I ever worked in my entire career

Pros

Only positive thing I can say is that I met some nice people - those who do the day-to-day work

Cons

No induction as new employee - figure out yourself. Weird culture - Line managers must keep their mouths shut and don't challenge senior managers --"Yes Sir". Senior leaders are the worst ever --Rude, unprofessional, micromanagers, no dialogue - only orders and finger pointing despite their 90/10 core principle. Overworked employees - on 7 x 24 - loads of overtime is expected norm. Inhuman treatment and lack of respect for basic human values. All Senior Management (and Line Managers) are ALL Male - the boy's club only. Constant changes in leadership - strategy not always clear.

Pros

approximately 2 years ago, the sales department went through staffing/management changes and I believe it was a breath of fresh air for the company and the people. The new management team is great. They do not put unrealistic expectations on their workers and they are very empathetic and understanding and seem to care about their workers. If you are struggling or falling short of your goals, they give you many chances to improve and help you to improve.

Cons

Con 1 no hourly wage increase in over 7 years. Bonus program is OK, but it is difficult to be able to count on the bonus portion of your pay since there is so much room for fluctuation. The cost of living is rising substantially and it would be nice to at least have a "Cost of Living" increase to help keep up with other costs. Con 2 some of the workers in the company have a sense of entitlement and get upset when work flows/procedures are put into place for them to follow. I don't know of a company/business that you can do what you want, and come and go as you please. There are worse businesses out there to work for.

Pros

Lot of freedom in my work and a lot of room for personal initiative. Very supportive and efficient leaders. Interesting products and projects with a lot of users worlwide. Get rewarded when you go the extra mile. Had to leave due to non-job issues.

Cons

Not so well organized. Senior management changes plan often, but this barely has an effect.
