Poor Leadership and Management leads to Toxic Culture - Recensione dipendente - Project Manager presso GHD

Strategy and Structure- GHD is currently restructuring to provide more room for “growth”. The new business strategy is smoke and mirrors to stop the bleeding from the high turnover rate that results from a toxic culture. New leadership positions were “created” to give more employees opportunities to advance but all of those position were filled before the announcement. Thus leaving no more actual opportunities. Employees are openly advise to avoid Glassdoor because of the poor ratings and poor feedback. Management- Toxic, blame game, scapegoating, and no responsibility. Managers openly talk very poorly about other employees when that specific employee is not around including confidential information. Managers intentionally under bid projects to win them but then blame the project manager when the project goes over budget. Employees openly speak about looking for other jobs to get out of the environment. Favoritism is intense along with passing blame. If you work here document every single thing you do to protect yourself do because lying in order to pass blame is a weekly occurrence. Salary- low salaries, with minimal raises or no raises even when bringing in large amounts of work. There is always an excuse to not give a raise. Outlook- Not good. Higher ups and managers advise their own children to stay away from this company because of the overall toxicity. GHD as a whole is moving to an “an open concept” style office. By open concept they mean an assortment cafeteria style tables with seats on first come first serve basis daily. All office materials must be taken back and forth between your home and the office each day. Management is trying to “promote” this as a positive but lack of personal items and guaranteed spot have current employees currently looking for other jobs. Avoid if you can, or get in and get out.
