Lies, and they act like they care - Quality Assurance Silencerco Employee Review

A great place to work.

Every company has growing pains!

Open, informal / casual atmosphere. Nice perks and compensation.

I worked there for 4 months. Management team seems unsure / uncertain of themselves, in experienced, not focused on appropriate priorities and direction. Not understanding or focusing on the right criterion and requirements when hiring resources and filling roles and positions. During the 4 months I worked there I reported to 3 different Supervisors. Not one of them ever set-up a meeting or formally scheduled a meeting with me to discuss their vision of what they needed me to do, or wanted me to focus on, or to ask me what I had been working on, or to provide guidance as to priorities to work on/focus on. The last 2 Supervisors during my final 5 weeks was confusing: I was officially a SiCoSyndicate employee, but they reorganized me from reporting to the President of the SiCoSyndicate to report to the VP of Manufacturing Operations of a different sister division (ZEV Technologies) even though I was not an employee of that division/entity. And on top of that I was told I had a strong dotted line reporting to the VP of Manufacturing Operations of SiCoSyndicate. I was also told my time would be dominated 70% of the time by ZEV Technologies, and about 30% SiCoSyndicate. It turned out to be more 95% time used by SiCoSyndicate only about 5% of time on ZEV Technologies. Reporting to 2 separate Managers/Supervisors for 2 different entities is rarely ever a good idea. There is typically too much competion fighting for the employee's/resource's time, and always priority conflicts. It rarely works out. The cultural atmosphere was too casual, lacked professionalism. They allowed workers to bring their dogs to work in the office, for example. Don't have a good ERP system (Odoo) nor any reporting tools to manage the business and manage and track progress of KPIs and KPMs.
