Don't Bother - Maintenance Technician A-SAFE Employee Review

I wasted 2 years of my life working for this company. Right from the start I knew I may as well throw my job description out the window. The owners micro manage every part of the workforce and show zero trust in any employee, no matter what their skills or experience. Communication from management is abysmal - with the most laughable 'open door' policy I've come across in 30 years. If you do make it through their so-called 'open door' you might as well talk to the walls - and have no doubt you'll leave ANY conversation with the directors much more confused (and often with a heavier workload) than you were in the first place. Morale on all sides of the company is spectacularly low. The workforce are under paid, overworked and under-valued - this despite lots of lip service about looking after their staff and being a good place to work. The owners simply regard most staff as dogsbodies who are lucky to be in their roles. Bonuses are pathetic. Meetings are stressful and unproductive. Departments seem to work in isolation for each other. In fact, the only thing the company do well (apart from selling lots of safety barriers, despite themselves) is win dumb awards from organisations who should have much more rigorous vetting procedures - and then displaying the awards in a trophy cabinet so their utterly downbeaten and disenfranchised workforce can look at them and feel like killing themselves.
