No balance - Recensione dipendente - Investor Relations presso Citco

Where do I start ? First off had no real training from my manager. Basically learned everything on my own. My team was extremely short staffed (obviously everyone wanted to leave) the manager I had was rude, he didn't know what he was doing. This manager would tell me one thing and then go back on what he said when he realized that he was doing things wrong. The work is highly repetitive. Manager lacked communication skills. The hours were extremely long, and not worth it. NO WORK/LIFE BALANCE !!! I love a challenge and I do well under stress but this was something else the stress was unnecessary. Most days I would leave at 7pm be too tired and drained, due to dealing with Unclear demands from my manager, to even enjoy spending time with my family and go to the gym. Sure they give you high hopes when you get hired making you think that they want you to have a nice balance between work and personal life but they don't even give you time to enjoy your personal life. You may get your gym membership covered but you won't be able to use it unless you want to compromise sleep. Lack of sleep is greater risk of mistakes and everyone knows that when you make even one mistake even if your work is mistake free 99% of the time they will right away come down hard on you for it. Managers do not show leadership they only "guide" you when you make a mistake and I really wouldn't call it guiding since they only give you sh*t for making that one tiny mistake. they never give you recognition for having mistake free work 99% of the time. We're humans not computers mistakes can happen that's why managers are supposed to then look over our work and SHOW us how to ensure perfection every time.
