Great people being driven away from sinking company

Pros

People are friendly and approachable and a lot of teamwork and dedication (staff not company)

Cons

- Virtually no pay rise and bonus is pathetic. Also everyone gets the same so ability/ efforts are wasted. - They dont replace staff that have left and just make others absorb their work. - Zero training, oversight and support. - Because of the lack of training junior staff are useless meaning you end up doing their jobs too. Oh and don’t bother complaining because management will defend them and tell you to train them. No-one is ever fired or fails probation. - Not enough people or knowledge to run projects meaning the quality of work is poor which is frustrating. - No info from senior management and very secretive environment. Its clear the company is in trouble but they wont tell anyone what is going on. - As per other reviews yes they did announce you could no longer carry over PTO at the end of Dec when many people already had holidays booked. - Everyone is chronically stressed, crying and taking sick leave. Leaving the company felt like escaping an abusive relationship (really!), you cant leave because they need you but you also cannot cope staying there. Very sad.

No room for advancement Layoffs are inevitable and frequent No concern for staff or value of work being done Chaotic, no direction, no communication, finger pointing and talked down to from Sr. on a daily basis Lack of new business; current business continues to wind down Full of “bosses” vs leaders Morale and engagement very low
