Svantaggi
Layoffs last year created an environment of distrust and dissatisfaction. Reorganization lead to increased demands on those left. Senior management promised raises and promotions to a large group leftover in exchange for taking on an increased workload (in my case- combining the job of 4 people into one) and did not follow through. Reviews are subjective and do not show the true value of an employee. You are more harshly reprimanded for interacting with coworkers than you are rated on the merit of your work. Dissatisfaction throughout the organization causes workers to be nasty backstabbers. There is no reason to work harder than necessary at this company because chances are the person next to you is on Facebook all day making more money than you do and being recommended for a raise. The new corporate raise policy excludes all employees from a yearly COLA and instead highly rewards employees with promotions and raises for which they are not qualified.
