American Superconductor reviews

company perception is impacted by volatile stock market

My first review ever on Glassdoor. Hostile work environment and treated as less than a human being starting on my first day. On my first day of employment I was asked if I was going to have additional children by my boss without bringing up the topic. Also, starting on my first day of employment my boss talked about how people above, also people who sat beside her and people below her were slow and incapable of doing their jobs. Every day I was met with a hostile boss who treated me like I was not a human being. I also received comments about the childcare of my teenager while working on my first day without mentioning it. I have never in my life been this excited to not work somewhere. This company does require you to do the job of many roles as well so be okay with doing that. Expect to work on Saturday and Sunday as well. I also saw conversations about my personal information being discussed with my boss. Also, they did lots of layoffs this year as well and they plan for more which is public information. Expect extreme micromanaging as well.
