Pros

I have nothing nice to say about this company.

Cons

I’ve spent several months looking for another job that pertains to the field I studied in college. When I came across the Operations Leader in Training role offered by Stratix, I thought this would be the job for me. The job description emphasized how it was meant for new graduates with a bachelor’s degree that wanted to gain experience and learn about various supply chain operations, including inventory management, order picking etc. , and then transition to a leadership role within the company after the training program ended. When I started the job this week, I did the best I could to learn everything. This included scanning barcodes of inventory and inputting them into the ERP system, moving these products into their designated areas, and more tasks. Since I was only there for less than a week, it naturally took some time for me to get used to everything and learn these responsibilities. The supervisor that I worked under seemed to be patient and was willing to answer every question that I had. All went well, or so I thought. Yesterday, I was summoned to the HR manager’s desk with my supervisor to discuss with my performance during that week. They stated that since I was struggling to do the basic tasks, they felt like this position was not for me and then they let me go. Their excuse is that since this was a role meant to train someone to be a manager, they expected me to know every single thing right off the bat. This is insanely unprofessional and unfair because I’ve only been at the company for literally less than a week. It doesn’t make sense to fire someone when you haven’t given them enough time to learn how the company does their operations. The point of a training role is to gain experience. Firing someone after their first week for poor performance clearly illustrates dishonesty and and unprofessionalism. If you’re a new graduate coming out of college, or if you’re looking for a job in general, I would not apply to Stratix. They have no respect for your time whatsoever. I am now having continue looking for another job in this already difficult job market with even more caution.
