Ran into many non inclusive situations. Even when HR was brought in they indicated that the issues were not led by bias intentions and that the lack of inclusion was simply an illusion.
Leadership always preached “ownership” but when you owned a project and executed differently than they would expect, they would let you hear it and put a lot of blame on you.
I was out sick for a few days and my manager texted me everyday asking me to pick up the slack and we needed to have a serious conversation about my career when I recovered (I was in the ER).
HR and management constantly preaches that feedback is crucial and valued. However, whenever I (or any colleagues) would bring feedback up it would be discredited immediately. If feedback was brought to me, I would have zero chance to respond to it.
I was discriminated against multiple times by my manager. I often would do the work/projects my manager would sign up for but then “delegate” away. My manager was new to management in the past year and was really poor at it but given their tenure they were more respected than myself.
This company also discriminates anyone who doesn’t get the COVID vaccine. I saw several team members get discriminated for this and their managers would claim all of a sudden their “performance” was deteriorating…when in fact they were a top producer or worker on their team.
Pay is extremely low here! Way below market standard.
The company is way far behind on remote work. They don’t allow remote work full time for any employees. This shows a lack of ability to keep up with their own competition and employee needs.
Several managers were ruthless toward their project teams and I saw several employees get let go and the managers would laugh about it to me or talk so lowly of the employee, thinking I would find it humorous too.
One of my team members was told they weren’t being promoted simply because they didn’t “look” like a manager and weren’t the best dressed in Zoom calls…ouch!
Overall, this company needs a leadership overhaul and more inclusive leaders…while also needing to improve pay and remote work.
