Pluspunten
- At first, it seemed like everyone was supportive and kind - Apparent flexibility in how and when you work - Some employees have a lot of industry knowledge
Minpunten
- Incompetent, bully, two-faced, manipulative, ego-centric and micro-managing manager. They openly disliked me because I was disagreeing with them. Blaming for someone else's mistakes (including their own), no appreciation, double-standards - If you stand out for yourself or have a different opinion, you'll be bullied for that; not rewarded. They'll try to manipulate you and make you think like them. They'll make you feel like there's something wrong with you. They really don't like diversity. - Hush-hush culture - if you won't ask you won't know or you'll find out last or by a total coincidence. Pretending to be honest, but in fact, they are far from it. - Cliques - Pretend to be supportive at the start, but in fact, they'll make you feel not welcomed, they'll make you feel isolated like you don't belong - No processes (but they obviously pretend to have one), shambolic chaos, no deadlines, and suddenly asking for something to be done straight away. No respect for their employees. - Lack of collaboration - it's more like a 'who's faster' culture within the team. Outside of your close team, you get ignored. You're left on your own. - Back-stabbing, two-faced teammates pretending to be your friend, then reporting you to the manager (high-school bullies) - Expecting you to fill six different roles at the same time for a non-competitive salary. Expecting you to work 10+ hours, with no extra pay or holidays for overtime. Absolutely no trust - they ask you to fill weekly Timesheets - Lying during the interview and later on - I was assured that I'd be working on something innovative and that I can adjust the responsibilities within the role, which both turn out to be a lie. They also said that there are no meetings, when in fact I was stuck in daily meetings (which were unproductive) - Nobody respected the team I was in, you constantly need to prove your value and worth. People question why you are even there, and why they need your help. Your work will either be removed or never be released to the public eye. - Bullshiters, overcomplicating what's already complicated. Extensive, non-readable documentation on Confluence. Making it hard for someone with no utility background to understand the industry - Timezones - absolute chaos, trying to work with people with terrible communication skills, who are 11 hours ahead of your time. Making the collaboration impossible - High turnover rate - especially in a role I was in. People leave after a month or a few. I presume they might have been bullied out of the job too.
