Core values are used as a shield, along with the saying “culture fit”
If you are a part of the LGBTQIA+ community or on the spectrum be aware that “culture fit” is code for “are they like us”.
The old reputation of Fox only hiring members of the majority religion has faded, but the top leadership still use “culture fit” as code to make sure “the right people ” are brought in.
I personally saw this, and was told by other employees who saw or felt similar situations happen.
There are wonderful people at Fox who don’t have, or let their biases affect them and how they interact with others, but they view people different from them as a valuable and a culture add!!
The core value of Relationships first and viewing the person “bigger than the problem” only lasts until they (direct leader/manager) no longer view you as worth the effort or energy needed to coach support that individual.
You will be micro managed by direct Leadership.
You will spend 2+ hours of your day transferring data from the KPI onto excel sheets, for daily, weekly & monthly reports. This is data that every manager or leader has access to. It’s busy work and not an efficient use of time and talent.
Leadership will express that you can and should bring questions or concerns to your leaders, if you do go to them with problems, questions or concerns, be prepared to be labeled as “negative” or you that you have a bad attitude and now you are the problem.
They will say that they want managers that are strong and focus on building relationships and growing employees into leaders, but promote managers with the managing style of The hammer (manager) and nail (subordinates) where numbers show the value of the individual.
And they wonder why they can’t keep employees.
You have been pushing those types of leaders in operation for 2+ years and wonder why CSR. Dispatchers, Team leads, BOMs among other are leaving and are not feeling valo, seen or heard.
