Vantaggi
1. Initial flexibility - Early on, management approved reasonable flexibility.
2. Opportunities to contribute to major projects; great learning opportunity.
Svantaggi
1. Sudden reversals of previously approved accommodations
2. Inconsistent and unclear communication — I was repeatedly told concerns had existed “for months,” yet none were communicated initially. 3. Expectations changed frequently and without notice.
4. Micromanagement — Requirements such as block scheduling every task in Outlook.
5. Punitive break - I was told I would be limited to one bathroom break per day, which was communicated suddenly and without prior discussion.
6. Delayed feedback on alleged performance issues — It took three months for management to identify a performance concern, which was tied to shifting priorities that leadership itself directed.
7. Embarrassing or hostile interactions — Being told “don’t lie” during a check‑in, or being phoned loudly in a cubicle area about scheduling, created an uncomfortable and unprofessional environment.
8. Probationary period with no clear criteria — Despite meeting all expectations during the probationary period, it continued indefinitely with no explanation of what was required to exit it.
9. Lack of support for working parents — Schedule changes, limited notice, and inconsistent approvals made it extremely difficult to manage childcare responsibilities.
