Perks can’t make up for toxic micromanagement and distrust
Pros
Compensation, perks, and benefits are competitive. The team collaboration at the peer level is strong and supportive.
Cons
I left the company to get out of a culture of distrust fueled by an inexperienced manager. When you gave your best, delivered results, and stayed on top of deadlines, none of it shields you from constant scrutiny. Micromanagement was extreme; calendars were policed, time on tasks was questioned, down to monitoring computer activity despite manual time tracking being in place. Managers blocking off time just to surveil employees is sick and disgusting. It created a toxic environment where I felt watched instead of supported. And this wasn’t an isolated experience as some other employees have left or been dismissed under the same circumstances, yet the company continues to tolerate these unethical practices. The way productivity concerns were raised lacked empathy, clarity, and accountability, leaving employees blindsided, stressed, and frustrated instead of guided. While local HR shows no empathy and failing to provide clarity or fair handling during sensitive situations.
