To many chiefs that forget what it's like in the field - Maintenance Labor and Swing Man to Other Departments Clear Channel Outdoor Employee Review

Management on both sides of operations and the management in the sales side do zero communication in between managers to make things flow smoothly between each department. It's like each department is afraid to ask if we change this part it will help the other part but everyone is afraid to speak up and try to make things better and easier for everyone full circle. Operations managers forget what it's like in the field. their favoritism towards certain people in their department they will get the easy work and are never expected to work or help out in other departments. The more you know how to do the more work you have to do while the other guys who know nothing get to do nothing and for you knowing how to do everything you get zero compensation for your knowledge and you are expected to work harder cause you know more. Management or who ever gives raise thinks everyone deserves a raise. They don't give you raises based on how well you work or do your job and how much you know how to do they give everyone a raise equal and that seems to be the same for end of the year bonuses to. Certain departments with certain people are not expected to help out or cross train when other departments that are short handed. They have this speed to market which is a joke cause they expect the rotation and bill posters to put up all the work for that week in the first 3 days so sometimes you will have 20 signs to put up for three days straight and then the other two days there is no work. You think they would spread it out and not kill their guy's the first three days. And the ae's and the person who enters the work that has to be scheduled to go up into the computer communicate zero with the operations side. this causes you to go to the same sign two times in two days in a row instead of putting up both sides the same day and they will have you drive a hundred miles to the same county to put up one sign then the next day do the same thing and do the same thing again for three days straight instead of working together and communicating between departments and gather all the signs that go to one county and go to that county one time in that week and then the company could save on gass hourly pay wear and tear on the trucks. That would be the smart way but that's Not the Clearchannel way they complain about having to buy paint or buy tires for trucks but they don't mind wasting time and money driving back and forth to the same signs every other day or driving a hundred miles out of the way three different times in one week. There is pretty much zero room for advancement. It seems when someone retires that was in a manegment position. They don't refill that position they just pass off that position to a different manager and doubles their work load and they don't compensate us for taking on more work. If you want to learn how to do a mangers job cause you are next in line hopefully for that position it's like pulling teeth for them to let you cross train and better yourself and be a better asset for the company. That's the way you think they would look at it but it seems they would rather keep you in that same position for the rest of your life. No one is ever accountable for their screw ups. It's seems once you mess a job up you never have to do that job again. Then you end up getting the easy work and basically get payed to do nothing all day cause you can't be trusted to do your job correctly. Then all that work they get out of gets passed to the people that know how to do the work and those are the people who get payed less than the guys that screw up and don't know how to do the job. Seems really fair. The new pay scale for rotators and Bill posters sucks and they are loosing money no body likes it. They want the work done now but yet they took all the incentive and motivation away from them. when they changed are pay scale.
