- micro management (people cannot interact with one another and should be facing their computer screens at all times)
- no autonomy or decision power to any employee, regardless of their position and expertise; CEO controls everything
- they want people to work extra hours with no extra payment, as part of a team "culture"
- the salary is already lower than the market average
- they don't value soft skills among employees, so the work environment is boring and tense (people look like robots, the ones that decide to stay in the company)
