Incapable Leaders and Toxic Work Culture - Senior Team Lead Shore Group Associates Employee Review

Pros

Humane middle management (2 guys who are very seniors in the company) supporting the employees and fostering the right talent Good work life balance if you fall in the right project (3 weeks work from home and 1 week in office based on office space allowance) Decent Pay (as long as client budget allows it, if not, you are laid off any day without notice) If you are in good graces of the Ops head, you can chill and take salary without working as well

Cons

Dry promotion (no salary hike; arbitrary changes in designation to avoid employee dissatisfaction) Retention bonus (they take 10% of your pay each month and give it once every 6 months but not if you resign within 6 months) No notice or severance pay if you are laid off (they stress on serving 2 months notice if you resign) Relieving letters are not given on time and not given on email; only physical copies (if you move to a different city or country, good luck getting that) Ops head forces pregnant women to come to office even though work from home can be done Client approved work from home is also not given if Ops head does not approve Single person management with no alternative, Ops head runs team like some religious dictator Heads of Ops, HR and facilities are in cahoots and give incorrect good feedback to CEO on each other CEO has limited visibility of what happens in the company being offshore in US Toxic work culture with some teams working more than 8 hours a day with hard to obtain leaves Hike and promotion are based on Ops head, even if client approves them Mosquitos on the floor Stinking washrooms (unless clients are in office, then they are cleaned 10 times a day, otherwise cleaned once or twice)

Hello Senior Team Lead - I would be more than happy to discuss, in more detail, your concerns if you are willing. I would also like to discuss some of the points you mention as they seem off-base and would like to understand where you are getting that perception. We take this type of feedback seriously, and I would like to understand in more detail. Feel free to email me - dave.macolino@shoregrp.com - and we can arrange a time to meet. Your feedback would be kept confidential.
