Svantaggi
For the department I worked in, there were mass resignations when I tendered. HOD was micro managing the team. Appeared to let the staff to take charge, but would need to propose different types of suggestions for HOD's approval. Worst of all, we were required to present in PowerPoint slides even for simple suggestions. Biggest issue was the HOD could not make up her mind after the presentation of ideas. So the team had endless meetings/discussions, with no conclusions. This process kept repeating itself, day after day. As a result, many colleagues would OT (after work, on weekends, on PH, on leave) to clear their day to day (routine) operation stuff. Whereas the HOD would knock off on time on days HOD had appointments, yet the team had to continue slogging. During circuit breaker, working from home was the worst thing ever. Had to on web cam during office hours, cannot mute the mic. Had to ask for permission before going toilet break, cannot disappear from the screen for too long. Had to login 5 min before official start work time. As mic was not mute, it was particularly noisy especially since there's were more than 10 of us, with family members at the background. This includes the time when HOD was chatting with particular colleagues or scolding someone. Basically, we are being monitored and it was HELL. Also politics within the department. Pretend not to know means you can get lesser work? Junior staff are working so hard and we have two seniors spending time chatting away and next moment say that you have no time to do work? One of them even has time to catch up on the news every now and then and play games during working hours? The company seems perfect on the surface but totally rotten inside. There may be few departments that are ok but still, join at your own risk. Most of the colleagues have worked there for years. Will leave the culture to your own imagination.
