Svantaggi
- LONG hours. 7 consecutive 12-hour days per pay period, on call for days off. Management would make vague threats for those who didn’t cover coworkers’ sick days, despite offering no incentives for being on call. - Made lofty promises of ability to move up at the company, usually opted to hire externally. - Two-faced management, would be on the side of whoever they were talking to in the moment but would inevitably choose the path of least resistance with upper management. - Constantly in crisis. Every situation was life or death in nature, but nothing really happened either way. - Short-sighted business goals. Would opt to sell lower purity material at higher volumes to meet quotas quarter-by-quarter, but neglected process improvement for high purity material production. This cannot compete with Chinese manufacturers long term, as evidenced by the steady decrease in bonuses and cost of living adjustments (as well as general departmental funding). - General culture of apathy, delusional management, and resistance to process improvement.
