Such A Bad Experience Never Again !

Pros

Experience so bad it can only get better from here !

Cons

No HR strategy/vision, no training/career plans . The internal processes are not structured and lead to constant confusion at all stages of any business process. The only motivation is to satisfy the shareholders by taking as much money as possible from the customers wallet. At a manager level what only matters is not the result but meetings and politics.

Pros

Flexible work environment. There is very little consistency in work load so if it is quiet you can use that time for personal errands.

Cons

Extremely poor management and approach to staff. No recognition for existing staffs potential. Management activily reminding staff of their unimportance and replaceability. Micro management of office is prevalent while large issues are left aside. HR is non existent at this company, from pension issues, miscalculated holidays, issues with private healthcare. There is no recourse for any of the errors made internally within the company. Staff are routinely told to 'push through' important end of month/year items to secure figures then later reprimanded for those actions. There is very little time for administration and issues they feel are important unless this issues directly effects a manager. This is also common when referring back to the HR issues. Flexible work environment is only applicable to staff who have been long term at the company or if management deem their request more 'important' than others. SLA's are not monitored or followed with any consistency within the management level of business. Office moral is low and the environment is not appropriate for a productive work environment. Attempts to amend this issue is low and only at the request of specific staff members.

One of the worst companies I've worked for

Pros

Flexible hours Work atmosphere inside technical departments is good Not much pressure on average Employees can fight to have some courses approved, but the conditions are draconine

Cons

Incompetent, toxic management Will do anything to get new contracts and renew old ones. Pull down price services, lie, cheat, make promises impossible to fulfill... Management won't mind their employees until some issue arises, then they will pressure inmensely and try to match SLAs. HR department is a joke
