Victaulic reviews

Lack of respect for safety and mental health of employees. Workers who did their job at home for months at the beginning of the pandemic and even had proven productivity increases were forced back to the office in the height of the pandemic when little/no safety measures were put in place (which was legally questionable). Flexibility is actively discouraged. You get in at 8, leave at 4:30, and will be judged harshly if you don’t follow suit (despite it being 2020 and having the ability to work from anywhere). Absolutely no career development. People work for 30 years in the same position and those who want more are seen as bucking the status quo. There's a particular lack of development for women too despite any promises of something else. Culture of conformity that discourages and shames people for speaking up. Antiquated old-school mentality that is not sustainable. They don't have their eye on the long-term or any sort of strategy. Desperate need for upper management to get with the times. It's painfully clear they are really out of touch with their employees and what their needs are. Zero communication to employee base. It is a systemic problem that messages are not passed down or communicated within the company. Negligible PTO policy (12 days and you can ‘buy’ 5). Raises are nonexistent - minuscule end of year increase across the company, regardless of performance

Working from home is NOT an option under any circumstance: inclement weather, pandemic, sick, or just because it's 2020 and the majority of companies allow their employees to work from home part time. Nepotism is not uncommon. New roles are either created or given top priority to friends/family of executive management. Lack of diversity. No transparency. Lags behind many companies in salary but will spend money in other exorbitant ways. Will also expect employees to pick up additional work or roles without compensation. Bonuses and annual raises are bare minimum. Dress code is business attire. PTO days cap out at 25days after you work there for approx 30 years. Don't worry, you have the option of buying days with the below average pay you receive. You don't get sick days.
