Videojet Technologies reviews

I found the environment of Videojet to be greatly lacking in respect for the dignity of their employees. For example, people would get in trouble for coming back from lunch 2 minutes "late". While punctuality is certainly important in the workplace, to yell at people for being TWO minutes late creates a very negative and oppressive work environment. The company seems to be run using a "fear-based" model. Employee's constant have to justify their workday tasks. This does not create a cooperative or friendly environment. It creates animosity among co-workers and reinforces blaming behavior because no-one wants to own up to any mistake they might have made for fear of loosing their job. However, the most shocking and appalling practice is in regards to how the company speaks about/treats their over-sea's employees. Videojet employs people from other countries and those individuals have "difficult to pronounce names". In order to "solve" the "issue" of having to learn a non-American name, management decides what name they want to give that person and then informs that individual that they are now going to be called by some generic "easy to pounce name". This practice of "re-naming" an individual because some people find the name difficult to pronounce or because there is concern that customers won't want to talk to someone whose name they can't pronounce is utterly appalling and incredibly disrespectful!
