Svantaggi
- Over the past 14 months, the company has gone through TWO rounds of redundancies, which created uncertainty and concern among employees. The first round occurred last year and more recently, another round took place unexpectedly, causing distress among the staff. - HR don't investigate issues, they make judgements based on assumptions. Very biased. - No office culture and no socials, 70% of employees don't come into the office for that very reason. -Unlimited annual leave policy is actually bogus because you are judged if you take around 30 days. - Fnatic is very last minute in all aspects. Strategies are all over the place. - There is an ‘inner circle’ here at Fnatic, a small group of seniors. They all run the decision making of the company, often alongside the CEO. They’re also the most frequently promoted funnily enough. - The company predominantly hires junior or entry-level employees, with only a few exceptions for mid or experienced professionals. This hiring strategy may be aimed at reducing salary expenses but it can result in a lack of expertise and mentorship opportunities for junior staff. - Low pay across all departments (apart from the seniors!!). - Some employees consistently receive praise and preferential treatment, creating a perception of bias within the company. I see and hear about how others get demotivated because of this. - I’ve lost count of how many office administrators we’ve had in the last 3 years. No staff retention initiatives in place. That role needs revamping! - They only care about mental health/LGBTQ week/month etc when the time actually comes. Otherwise it's RARELY ever spoken about throughout the year. - Senior management dont push for excellence across their team. Most also dont know how to even lead a team and get the best out of people. - Partnerships team are untouchable. Other departments have taken hits for their mistakes for ages.
