DO NOT WORK HERE - Supervisor CTDI Employee Review

You work hard, you put in the effort, and you get this nagging sense that the people in charge simply look down on you and your colleagues. It’s like they have no respect for the people who actually do the work. What's even more frustrating is seeing how promotions work. It's not about merit or what you know; it's about who you know. There’s this one inner circle of friends, and they're the only ones who ever seem to get ahead. They have the power to decide who gets an opportunity and who is left behind, and it feels completely unfair. And the real kicker? Many of these leaders don’t even seem to have the fundamental knowledge needed to run the department. You're left with this constant, anxious feeling of, "Are they even qualified to be in charge of us?" To top it all off, you find yourself in an environment where the HR department is completely non-existent. There's nowhere to go for help or to raise a concern. You are entirely on your own. The most difficult realization, though, is when it becomes clear that people are seen as expendable. The orders from leadership are to protect contracts at all costs—even if that means firing people. It's a harsh reminder that you're just a resource to be managed, and if it comes down to it, your job is worth less than a contract. It's a truly disheartening reality to face every day.
