Toxic work culture - Recensione dipendente - Sales Representative presso Pyrrha

Great leadership, Owners are really involved, workplace is beautiful

Honestly none, I really enjoyed my time here

It was a paying job.

The company employs 25 to 30 people and has no HR department or outside HR counsel to assist employees. The owners do not care for the wellbeing of staff which is reflected in the company's overall disorganization, lack of communication, lack of health and safety protocols, and verbally abusive language used by owners when they do choose to communicate with employees. Worksafe BC standards are flagrantly ignored and measures are taken by the owners and upper management to hide areas of the studio that could be flagged as unsafe when the city visits the studio. The company is certified BCorp however they do no adhere to the strict employee wellbeing standards or the living wage requirements as mandated by BCorp. They consistently reduce the amount of precious metals in their jewelry products while increasing retail and wholesale prices, which has been noticed by longterm customers however the company does nothing about it. No room for growth within the company as they deem all employees replaceable. After 25 years in business their turn over rate of employees is roughly 30 individuals in 1.5 years, and no measures are taken to increase employee retention or satisfaction. During the COVID 19 outbreak after emergency status was declared by the BC government, they remained open thus potentially exposing employees to harm while the owners and all upper management staff were working from home as of the beginning of March 2020.
