Svantaggi
This has turned into a good old boys club quickly, or maybe it was like that all along. The merger wasn’t great, and everything is so disjointed and scattered all over the place. Few people know what they’re doing. Leadership is non-existent in many places. Many bad decisions at this company are made on a near-daily basis. The turnover is extreme, and people are quitting in droves. Problems include lack of diversity, appreciation, extremely poor management, and tons of bad last-minute decisions that negatively impact employees, but mostly poor management. ViacomCBS has a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion commitment that’s all a big fake show. Women and individuals of color are generally not promoted into any role. It’s not uncommon to see an inexperienced white male promoted or given a job over a qualified woman or person of color who contributed much more. Promotions are done based on feelings and not data. Women and People of color are routinely paid less, promoted less, and treated more unfairly despite having a stellar performance record. Seeing the treatment of women and people of color by multiple employees, rampant veiled racism and all types of bad behavior has me feeling stressed out. If you want old Amazon-levels of employee abuse without the Amazon-level pay, you’ll find it here. Very few people are happy here. Almost everyone is interviewing elsewhere. Entire teams are disappearing because everyone sees the writing on the wall, and all that’s left in some places are managers that don’t contribute anything of value.
