Not Getting Better - Anonymous employee Clubessential Employee Review

Ever since Clubessential was acquired last year, things have gone downhill, and it’s not stopping any time soon. Morale is extremely low due to lack of communication, incompetent leadership, unrealistic workloads, and lack of compensation. Mass layoffs and management that is resistant and slow to change have led to workloads and deadlines that are overwhelming and getting worse by the day. The company doesn’t support employees. Don’t be fooled when they promise to promote you within six month or a year, because they have no intention of doing that. They offer nothing in the way of training or continuing education, and when they do promote employees, they pressure their people into taking promotions that don’t align with their interests, skills or career goals. Some upper managers lack any sort of knowledge or expertise that are required to do the job, and the only management tactic is to nag people into working harder. Upper management goes through the motions of getting employee feedback via online surveys, but no changes have been made to fix any of the glaring issues within the company, and things keep getting worse. The company is very controlling and closed-minded, refusing to take some very simple steps toward improving morale (being flexible about work hours and working from home).
