Terrible Management - - Sous Chef Compass Group USA Employee Review

Pros

You get to work with some great people.

Cons

The job you sign up with IS NOT the job you stick with. They move you around so many times its confusing and the pay raises are complete garbage at 48 cents a year. Mix that in with being punished or fired for NOT being able to do 4 jobs at the same time and you have a recipe for unhappy and angry employees. The "Confidential" employee review of the company you are MADE (not asked) to fill out are NOT confidential at all, as all higher ups have complete ability to view these, and punish those who give a bad review of their management. If you are not in the "inner circle" of the higher management you are pretty much ignored, or blamed for something that wasn't your fault or your dept's fault. Just when you do get a supervisor in your dept that really works, and is doing well they get fired or quit due to a higher up screaming at them and talking to them like they are a child in front of other employee's.

Pros

Autonomy, trust, not being tied to a desk, and encouragement to bring your authentic self to work are among the highlights. However, as a contractor, this may vary from account/site to site. Also, annual raises awarded, despite what the client schedule for increases looks like. A huge network of subsidiary companies

Cons

My current client site is one of the higher paying in my region, which is a good problem to have for some time, but leaves little room to grow financially. Also, growth rarely if ever happens staying in the same account, so financial/role growth will rest mostly upon pursuing other opportunities at different Compass accounts.
