Toxic work culture of office politics, powertrips and drama
|
|
It is a canadian company. If you like free cheap cupcakes every 3 months or so, you will love it here. If you are incompetent but have social skills and are manipulative, you will probably strive here and maybe even get a promotion to lead or manage others.
|
Really bad managers. A lot of incompetent and power-hungry people in lead roles. Pay is terrible. Impossible to get a decent raise, they don't even give raises that equal the rise of living costs so it's like getting lower pay every year. Only the people at the top make good salaries and it's obscene amount of money. A few people make 350k+ and most are around 45k. Managers treat employees badly and hr does absolutely nothing to provide a safe and healthy work environment for employees, hr even protects managers who bully employees. I've seen many people on burnout leave, people bullied into medical leave, and I've seen so many people crying in restrooms because of workplace abuse and having no support. HR say they build work cases but it's a lie, they have years of data from multiple people and still do nothing and keep bullies in leading roles. A lot of ego and argumenting during meetings from people in competition. Culture of pushing others down and not allowing them to grow and go up. Heard managers brag about keeping lower employees in their place. People will throw one another under the bus when sales are bad. Constant restructuring, no vision management wise, it's like no one at GT knows how to run a company and treat people decently. During restructures they keep people in the dark and then make announcements of changes afterhours while people need to leave to go pick-up their kids, the restructures are poorly done. No transparency whatsoever. When restructures are done, they will often entirely change the role of someone and force them into a trade they have never consented to do when signing their initial hiring contract. Some people are forced to move and move their families when assigned a new role, without even a conversation or a warning. They don't care about people and they don't care about consent. Unecessary stressful environment. Too many meetings that feel like they are done just so managers feel important or can argue with one another. There is zero coverage if you fall ill or burnout, you're on your own. Hr and management are extremely manipulative and treat people like they are worthless and replaceable. Total lack of vision and leadership. People who are really competent in their field and have good ideas are systematically pushed down and excluded, they're often moved to other positions into a smaller role just to be silenced. Managers are insecure and feel belittled by anyone who is more competent than them and that's most people. They say they promote working remotely as an advantage but in reality managers pressure employees to work at ho, they guilt-trip and treat employees that work remotely like second class employees even when they are more effective. Individuality and diversity is definitely not something that is valued. I've seen managers force employees to work on week-ends and on holidays like christmas day when they were scheduled to be off. There is no respect for people and there is no worklife balance even though everyone pretends it is priority. The place is a revolving door. Instead of promoting people from within, people who know the company, those in lead positions hire their buddies who have no knowledge of the company or market. Salaries are completely unfairly given, sometimes newbies with no experience will have a better salary than a person who has been there for 10 years and does the job better, it makes no sense. People take credit for other people's work and steal ideas - no collaboration or vision of building things up together, it's a dog-eat-dog culture of insecure people who lack the skills to be in the role that they are in. This is not a good company to work at.

Stop the useless restructures and just get rid of all the bad managers. Send hr personel to empathy classes and make them actually do their jobs. Hire managers who are actually competent at managing. Elevate good employees instead of crushing them or casting them out. Support people who are suffering because of your poor working conditions.

Quick passed but easy to work in environment. Mostly depends on the rest of the the team you are working with
|
A lot of locations are taking advantage of the recent reduced min full time hours, so its unlikely to get full time.
