Best to leave brain on stand-by at the morning meeting. Management style is authoritarian, top-down, maintain the status quo at all costs, yes-man, falling dominos-- school of Management. Management despises change and improvement. Speaking up on need for continuous improvement, improving processes and calling attention to waste in operations--will target you for retaliation. Disingenuous Code of Conduct and ethics hotline-- is for show only--- Machiavellian. Lack of employee growth and development by culture where highest virtue is....'staying under the radar'. Company lags its peers in safety because safety is politicized. Promotions not based on merit/ best and brightest are not promoted-- fast-track to promotion is based on abilities as a loyal yes-man who will back their boss....unconditionally. Stress problem at Company caused by Management bureaucracy.

Bad moral, short vision role on some group, efficiency statistics were destroying frontline employee health and public safety, it is depends on the department and supervision you follow, some of them nice and helpful on your career path. There still some supervisors or managers are bullies, they believe micromanagement is a proper technique to manage their employee. They abused their job duties against their unfavorite employees. I do agree with the previous comment came from WC claims adjuster that left on an earlier post, retaliations are around in workgroup. If you have higher/better educational background or thinker types style person, this may not be a good working place for you. They do like people keeping mouth shut and do the job, I am not sure higher up management style because these situations happened a lot from lower level or entry level management group to union represented employees. Union mostly helping large or class action issues such as benefits, wages or hours problem but their jobs are very limited and may not be able to help all kinds of employment relationships problems. Some union steward had lack of trainings for union rights.
