Although you were only employed for four days during that time, you managed to frustrate the entire team by being untrainable, unpleasant to interact with, and combative to say the least. Rarely have I had just about the whole staff revolt over a new hire, and as a result, I had to let you go before the end of the week.
Your termination was based on your work attitude and not being a good fit for the organization.
I am not going to keep an employee who is not a good fit just for the sake of keeping an employee and frustrate/alienate tenured employees who have been with the company for years,
Your comments reveal your minimal work history and experience. For this reason, employees' benefits are available after a year or earlier based on performance.
Literacy is a critical factor in securing and maintaining employment.
Onboarding "nonsense" or "documentation," as you call it, is integral to the new hire orientation process.
An employee handbook is a vital document for both employers and employees. Based on your comments, this is the first time you have encountered one. The employee handbook Sets clear expectations, Communicates company values, Introduces new hires, Promotes consistency, and so much more. A legitimate business should have one in place.
The standard cellphone policy applies to many production facilities (should not be a surprise). All the policies you are complaining about are standard SOPs in warehouse and manufacturing facilities.
During the few days of employment, your primary focus was on crass jokes and attempts at socializing and fraternizing while not training and getting to know your position. You were left to read various training manuals and watch numerous training videos; instead, you required constant hand-holding and supervision from your team lead.
Most company employees were not hired as “Master IT guys”; instead, they were “computer hobbyists” and, at best, High school graduates. However, they have become "Master IT guys" because they are coachable and trainable, have excellent work ethics, and are genuinely willing to learn.
Processes in place are developed collaboratively with input from employees. You should be worried if you work at a company with no documented processes and everything is "verbal."
As you noticed, Beyond Surplus is a diverse workplace. Employees who expect to be micromanaged do not fit in at all. Your former coworkers, whom you started with, and new hires are thriving because they are coachable, trainable, autonomous, collaborative, adaptable, creative, proactive, detail-orientated, humble, hardworking, passionate, reliable, and have integrity. This is why you felt out of place.
The question you should ask yourself is, why waren't you able to be as successful as your peers? Looking inward can be a powerful tool for personal growth and development and will help prepare you for future long-term employment.
As a growing company awarded numerous contracts, positions currently open are management, e-commerce specialists, PC testing, customer service, Business development, and account management.
If you had genuine concerns, you could have brought them up during the daily team meetings instead of posting anonymously here. Your "concerns" are unfounded and can only be posted anonymously under the cover of the internet.
I wish you the best in your search for a job.
