Easy work, bad Leadership
|
|
Easy work to do, flexible hours
|
Bad leadership, hiring and promotions are subject to be connected with upper managers.
No opportunities for women. It’s a place for man. No diversity.

Avoid like the plague
|
|
Some investment in staff
Some staff were friendly and welcoming
|
Bullying management and inappropriate culture. Upper management is part of the old boys club.
Overheard many of senior management making inappropriate comments about younger female staff.
Problems start at the top, the book is handed down

lol you must be joking
|
company is sinking, everyone is leaving and management hasn't got a clue. if you don't tell the md what he wants to hear then you're out for the ones who do even though they can't deliver. sexism is rife it's like working in the 1970s

Have management spend more time navigating the byzantine systems and procedures. Then ask how these things might better serve your employees and customers.

None at all, toxic environment
|
Penny-pinching UK management expect too much from under-resourced and over-stretched teams, key people are leaving and not being replaced. Promotions and pay rises are only available to the old boys' club which makes up most of the middle-management tier. Unrealistic forecasts are fed back to the US and no recognition is given to the staff on the ground who bend over backwards to try and achieve them. The only way they know how to invest is to acquire other companies which they then neglect.
