-The company pays terribly. They instill this fear in people that they won't find flexibility anywhere else, so there are a ton of people who are afraid to leave even though they're paid way below the average. It does seem like they started to pay better because of the amount of people leaving, but I don't know how it is across departments.
-When you start, they don't pay for your first day meal. They don't pay for birthday meals or team bonding, or your supplies, or your coffee. You literally start and your desk is barren except for a computer and mouse. You don't even get pens, notebooks, or a MOUSE PAD. There's an expensive coffee machine, or the expensive cafeteria. Anything free is paid for by partners to keep the employees happy.
-Management. It's like they keep trying to help and nothing ever really happens. They were somewhat personable, but either they were too lazy to help, too busy to help, or the management above them stopped anything from actually helping. In all honesty I have no idea which it was since most managers were overworked, and leadership doesn't trust its employees.
-Some people just seem to have the magic touch to do literally nothing, then do one project to get noticed and get promoted. Their promotion system made absolutely no sense.
-HR didn't seem to exist in our department. If you had a problem you dealt with it with your manager, and sometimes I wonder if going to HR instead would have solved the problems.
-There were a lot of passive-aggressive gossipers. Until I told people I was searching for other opportunities, I wasn't sure who I could and couldn't trust.
-HR did seem appalled by everything so I'm hoping it has all changed. I do know that several things have already so it's probably a better opportunity than it was prior.
-Promotions seem to be decided upon as a group rather than by your manager which is different.
-it seems to suck the effort out of you. A lot of people seem to get sick of being unable to make any difference and give up and stop making an effort.
