Management Nightmare

Pros

Benefits are reasonably good but can be taken away by management at any time.

Cons

Very weak management with zero leadership. No planning and poor communication. The company is run by a CEO that has lost touch with his staff. He has appointed incompetent and unqualified senior management team to run the organization. And this has resulted in overwhelming nepotism and favoritism. The HR department is totally incompetent and often at a loss to answer even the basic questions.

Toxic environment to work in....

Pros

Good salary, dynamic workplace, industry leader.

Cons

Where to start....Thoroughly unprofessional place to work in. Employees are expected to answer emails on weekends and evenings. Senior management are part of every major group so they have an eye on every part of your working day. Take 30 mins to answer an email and they'll let you know very quickly. Every so often Senior management will have a blow out and calls and emails will be sent to many people, berating and brow beating some poor entry level employee. A day in this plac feels like a year sometimes. Almost all employees prefer to work away from the head office where they won't have to face the CEO or another of his lackeys. It's very clicky, promotions and perks only go to the chosen few. Bonuses will be cancelled on a whim and anyone who dares to leave has his/her name dragged through the mud.

Pros

Benefits and compensation are better than average. Colleagues outside of the Executive management team were friendly, helpful and consummate team players!

Cons

Nepotism, poor leadership and greed amongst personnel at all levels. Executive team portrays itself as professional until faced with difficult decisions that might impact its "ivory tower".
