Bullying is in the DNA - Anonymous employee Barclays Employee Review

Bullying and harassment are daily fare. Salaries are at the low end of the market. long hours are expected and extra efforts are quickly forgotten. Raising the point that the workload is unreasonable and leads to long hours meets a 'work smarter not harder'. I experienced first hand bullying and harassment and know of two other former colleagues having been treated the same way without HR or upper management moving a finger. I raised a case with HR before resigning and it was only met by denial. Not a collaborative environment, a lot of back stabbing and politics. Brown nosing gets you farther than talent.
