Chaotic management, crazy work hours, no work ethics environment & CEO from hell

Hardware validation engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Meals if work late into evening Scream and shout your frustration like an animal

Cons

Later work hour meals being questioned by manager Unprofessional managers/sneior management Long hours of compulsory meeting - just listening to the CEO's never ending & repeating theme "contribution" but he himself has not make no contribution to improve productivity/efficiency/profitablity on his repeating speech - waste of time Required to work in the weekend Being dispised if you take paternity leave - managers withe mind set that woman gives birth to babies and that has nothing to do with their husband - legal paternity leave request were given a dirty look Very low pay - perhaps except CEO, his wife, and some top management. No support from HR with all sorts of harassment All talk and no performance required. No professional constructive contribution being required, only need to kiss up to your manager, who can decide whether you has a job/loss a job - no justification of raises, performance review etc. Whatever you contributed, if you don't like it, it's a sin.
