Where does one start? From the day I was hired I was given no guidance, direction, orientation, or training. I was sent to a job in Texas and just dumped. Had to deal with a couple of third party safety clowns who made a total mess of things, which demoralized the Barton Malow workers and made my job even more difficult. I should have pulled the plug on this place at that moment. The project management team did nothing to encourage, but, rather, maintained a fiefdom that played against corporate back in Michigan. After two months I was transferred to a job in Indiana, which lasted for 1 1/2 years, but it was so disorganized and the mid-level leadership was mainly millennials, who made it into a frat house.
This company is so top-heavy with VPs out the ying-yang and Barton Malow could save a pile of jing dumping half of them. When I got a call from some mid-level safety hack telling me that some VP heard a rumor about my complaining about per diem and that this needed to be addressed I realized that some VP had way too much time on his hands to deal with BS like this. Now they've restructured and they've added more layers of bureaucracy that the whole company will eventually capsize.
I was supposedly "laid off" however the rhetoric of the severance agreement was more indicative of termination with phrases prohibiting speaking derogatorily about the company.
Good riddance.
