Turtle reviews about "training"

There wasn’t a clear Training program

It feels like jail - long days The place has too many bosses that just don’t have a clue or care for the people that work for them. Jokers to the right & clowns to the left. The training is trash. Never provide any structure to communicate. They say anything for you to get into the door. Promises about work life balance & being a family company are all lies. If have a family dont expect to see them. I was expected to work 10-12 hour days. They are not to be trusted. I took the position to learn something & all I learned is how conniving they all are behind your back. Very high school level management. They beat the joy of the job right out of you. I regretted accepting the position almost immediately & stuck around for improvements that never happened. Fake facade of management wears thin. They had issue with me using the time off that I earned & they approved. It’s not anyway to run a business I was told. Clueless as treat people like a number. I wasn’t even allowed back to collect my belongings - received a call on a Monday morning just to stop coming in. Real classy way to treat any worker. They did me a favor so do yourself a favor & stay away. Beware of the witch out west. You have been warned. Way more options in the area if want a bad job.

- Electrical industry poses challenges, but as mentioned in the pros section, this company has shown adaptability decade after decade to stay highly relevant.

Could always improve training and communications

Very sales driven. All other employees are just minions. Corporate office is the gold of the company, and gets all of the perks. The other locations are bronze at best and you just get what you get. Low paying and minimal annual increases, no matter how hard you work or how good of a job you do. Good workers pick up the slack for poor workers. Too much time spent on non necessary yearly training, taking up valuable work time. Training on the very difficult computer system would be more effective and is very much needed.

I was only at the company for a few months so i did not run into any issues

The office culture was not a positive one. Working in an office with bad vibes and bad culture it takes a tole on your mental state. No training. When you need help learning something new you are on your own. Low pay.
