Power Tripping Leaders - Be Warned!!!

Production support associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A good stepping stone for project management

Cons

Leaders are power trippers! They'd find faults and dwell in them and kick you out after they take the best of you. Put you on so much workload, find a loophole so you don't bonus - a common tactic of the leaders is to put up gatekeepers like attendance, or whatever they can find on you just so you don't get to enjoy your hard-earned bonus for 3 months. They push you to do so much at their pace, but when the payout comes... they delay it so much to find faults first and then disqualify you. Gone is your quarter's worth of hard work. Promotion is a play to keep people - a retention offer. Compensation isn't fair - you're paid just the same regardless if your working for a Triple-A account or C account. Toxic environment - managers are micromanaging. The annual increase is measly and laughable. Most of all... no work-life balance, and yet they claim "We're a family"
