Great culture and career growth opportunities - Terriotry Sales Manager BURN Manufacturing Employee Review

There are some pretty great people that work here, and the company has potential to do actual good (if they actually wanted to).

A political, chaotic circus. Leadership is poor, clueless, confused, reactive, and seemingly allergic to strategy with company plans and structures changing daily. Meanwhile, the CEO constantly touts how well the company is doing while people are quitting or being let go en masse, and salaries and benefits are shrinking. Senior management is paid outrageously, while most employees are overworked, underpaid, and struggling to meet unrealistic targets. There’s almost no structure, and many people end up doing the same work. Management cliques run the show (these are adults, mind you), HR is inconsistent, and pay and opportunity disparities are painfully obvious - no Kenyan is anywhere near earning what non Kenyans do at Burn. I noticed patterns where certain company products were being diverted for personal use, rather than the business. It creates a toxic, demoralizing environment. Real issues are constantly swept under the rug to protect senior management and their favorites. Everything this company does is designed to appease investors, no one else. Most employees are checked out, there purely to do the bare minimum and collect a salary out of necessity because job security is nonexistent.

You need to be a self-starter at BURN. No hand holding. You just hit the ground running to survive. Lots to learn and a great company solving real world issues with innovative solutions.

Management does not always deal with bullying in the system.
