Long hours, lack of training, many broken promises. They hire people to manage the office that have little to no experience in the fuel industry. With the staff they have in place, many are just out of college, thrown in cubicles, and just thrown the work at them to be done. What this company needs is a staff that has years of experience in the fuel industry. These people that have the knowledge can get the job done in 40 hours with little to no errors and would be able to meet the deadlines required within this industry. They also make broken promises. Saying you can work from home, they throw laptops at you but still require you show up daily in the office. The laptop is for after you get home from a long days work and they expect you to keep working. They throw the employees that have a deadline driven position on salary and expect to own you 24/7. People have lives and families. If they would hire upper management that has knowledge in the industry, and allow these people to guide the staff, maybe then they could keep employees. Just a sad and depressing place to be. Co-workers were pretty much friendly and would help you out, but not for too long because upper management would walk around the office and give dirty looks if anyone was out of their cube. Poor management in most departments. Most of the deadline driven managers and/or directors are hardly ever around to assist or answer questions. And this company has more meetings than the Pope himself. They have meetings to schedule meetings. I never saw anything like it in my life. In my eyes as an experienced fuel industry employee I can honestly say "I've forgotten more than they will ever know."
