One of the worst places you'll ever work - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Blogilates

- Only 5 vacation days your first year - Management has NO management experience! And don't seem to have ANY interest in educating themselves about leading a company. That is where all of the problems stem from. - The micromanaging coming from the CEO is soul crushing. She won't delegate work properly to employees that she hired to do the work. - They refuse to hire for positions they need so each employee works 2-3 roles that they weren't initially hired for with no title or salary change. - CEO says she "promotes from within" but no one has been promoted because CEO is afraid of anyone getting more control and being able to challenge her. - Morale is VERY low. Everyone complains all day. Lots of turnover. Only a few employees have "willingly" quit or were pushed out. Majority of people that have worked here have been fired suddenly with little to no warning. Employees have been fired in as little as 3 days of being there. - CEO often cries in private meetings, which feels very emotionally manipulating and hard to ever voice concerns. - A LOT of obvious favoritism. They favor bubbly personality types and ridicule quieter employees for not being bubbly. - Inappropriate comments coming from CEO and upper management asking about private issues. They'd also ask employees to gossip about each other during private meetings. - CEO will ask for employees to critique her but she cannot handle it. What she really wants is praise and for everyone to love her, not critiques. - CEO often asked employees for praise and sometimes reprimanded for not giving her enough attention and compliments. - The activewear brand, that most employees were hired to work on, is mismanaged by CEO due to lack of experience, resulting in the brand completely failing. Employees are discouraged from voicing their concerns about it by because it "makes her sad". - The office is silent because CEO requires silence to work. Which doesn't make for a very inspiring creative environment. - Often paid late and upper management doesn't seem to care - Barely ever trusted to work from home - Health insurance is awful. Extremely high deductibles, really high co-pay.
