Working here feels like being stuck in a government job where nothing changes. Many employees have been here for decades with no incentive to leave, creating a culture of complacency.
Managers have no real training or leadership skills — most were promoted by tenure, not talent. They lack the ability (and often the interest) to support or develop their teams.
The environment is toxic, with full-on bullies who are openly enabled by top staff. Everyone knows it’s happening, and leadership does nothing to stop it.
Departments are constantly at odds with each other, carrying years of unresolved conflicts that new employees are expected to navigate on their own.
Onboarding is practically nonexistent. Don’t expect any real guidance or support from your manager or HR — you’re left to figure things out by yourself.
Meetings are routinely pointless, with no agenda, no direction, and no follow-up. They’re held just to check a box.
Everyone is required to work in the office at least three times a week, with no clear reason or benefit. It’s just another rule with no logic behind it.
The union is fighting for the bare minimum. The current “big” issue is getting rid of a probationary period — that’s how low the bar is.
