Years of experience with this company as a full time employee shows the working environment to be more of a "sweat shop" and dictatorship than an innovative and forward-looking corporation. Employee involvement in the direction of the company is nonexistent and unwelcome.
Employees are burdened with unrealistic goals, disappearing bonuses, non-responsive/ineffective management, empty promises, dishonesty, distrust, threats, and disrespect. Perks are withdrawn without notice and/or cannot be utilized.
Employees are flooded with emails which include directives toward national and local political issues (having nothing to do with the business itself). A large majority of the employees disagree with these positions on moral and/or ethical grounds. In additional to the emails, political events are held at the worksite using company resources with the expectation that the employees support that political position. Expressing a preference not to be included in the political activities and/or emails is cause for dismissal from the company.
Communication and exchange of ideas amongst employees is strictly forbidden and verbally expressed. All communication must be directed to the employee's immediate manager/team leader and no other person within the company.
"Quantity" is the byword of this company. Quality of the work product does not enter into the equation. Discussion of quality work is ignored.
An employee's position and duties may change without notice or discussion. Objection or resistance is cause for dismissal based on non-compliance.
The employee turnover rate at this company is extremely high. The average length of service for all employees of this company is very, very low based on the national and state averages. Only a few managers in top management have any longevity to speak of.
