Svantaggi
Cannot hold on to valuable team members, extremely high turnover. Performance review and feedback is done chaotically and unprofessionally. Raises are very inconsistent and don't follow a logical pattern aka yearly, quarterly etc. Team building, team motivating, and company culture are the lowest possible priorities for management. Management is a big fan of micromanaging, has trust issues and is consistently suspicious of employees. Management criticises employees that are not in the room to all other employees who are and propagates a hostile, fear-driven work environment. Management asks employees to complete tasks without giving direction, then proceeds to insult their work for not meeting unclear expectations. Management considers that approach to be an effective learning tool and would rather let employees figure things out and waste more time in the process, rather than training them effectively and efficiently. Management filters everything through their own experience, intuition and ability and expects everyone to work the same way as them, match their level of performance, and the number of hours committed to the job, despite drastically lower pay for team members. Management doesn't understand the value of time off, a healthy work-life balance and getting off work on time.
