- Flagrant favoritism across every department. Nepotism earns employees opportunities they are not qualified for.
- Hardware is in most cases very outdated, making a poor working experience for those tasked to use it.
- Constant team shuffles in IT department leaves employees constantly having to relearn their daily responsibilities.
- Politics/Religion are constantly brought into the workplace by management and discussed openly, with little regard to those who can hear the conversation.
- Lack of diversity in the workplace, less than 3% of the total staff are from a minority group.
- Work from home is available to management staff, even outside of the pandemic, but is strongly discouraged for anyone else. (Even during the government lockdown, employees were provided with papers to show that they were 'essential' workers.)
- On the job training is almost always ignored, even when making a major shift in job responsibilities.
- Outside training/learning is only covered for folks in the inner circle, other employees are left to pay for their own training and hope it is covered via reimbursement.
-IT employees are expected to work M-F 9-5 and then 6-9 or 10 on push nights
-Weekend work is not only encouraged, but required for almost all teams.
-If you are unable to work overtime, you are told that you are not a part of the team or that you are letting your team down.
- Building is incredibly outdated, there are yearly termites and commonly dead rats in the ceilings, but what can you expect when the building is maintained by one man who is constantly running personal errands for management staff.
-Unprofessional management: I have heard senior management constantly talk about "who's next" on their list of employees to get rid of. They also had no issues telling me what they thought of my direct supervisors.
-Lack of communication: changes are often made without being clearly communicated across the company
-Layoffs: two major layoffs have taken place in less than 4 years, tenured employees have been let go, effective employees have been let go, only the inner circle and their close friends remain.
