Hostile and dysfunctional work environment

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

- Some great learning opportunities in a new field. - Some great people if you exclude leadership.

Cons

- A hostile and dysfunctional culture. Bulling happens and HR has no clue or cares what is going on. ‘“Might is right” - you need to be a bulldozer’, so true! - Management openly lies, to employees and potential employees. - Get ready to be asked to work round the clock because everything is an emergency. Planning is at the bottom of the priority list. - No path for advancement.
