All of the problems with this company start with the C-Level employees and gush down onto all of the employees who aren't given protection through favouritism. I say this truthfully, as someone who was once protected by favouritism, and then eventually lost it, having the rose coloured glasses ripped away from my face so fast, I almost lost my eyes. Don't play favourite, period. The amount of work thrust onto lower level employees is not manageable. This company does not believe in the well known and successful practice of spending money to make money. Instead they prefer to terminate employment, even though they have a policy in place to "transfer before terminate", and turn a blind eye to the severe lack of resources, forcing everyone to work OT just to stay afloat (for senior management positions this is unpaid), and then getting belligerent when teams ask for more resources, stating it's unnecessary and pointing fingers back saying we just aren't working hard enough. Stop focusing so much on your CAC and Budgets and pay more attention to the employees that are putting in the work and making you money. Additional to the never ending and unmanageable workload, they love to hand out performance improvement plans like it's going out of style. Now I'm not against employee growth and development, but when you had someone a laundry list of "issues", when they ask for support or evidence, and are met with "we don't need to give you anything" it kind of makes you wonder, are they doing this to fuel their own egos? Or maybe they just don't want you around anymore. Supporting your employees when they ask for resources is not an opportunity for you to accuse them of not working hard enough, stop turning a blind eye, run the numbers, listen to your workforce. To sum it up, if you like working extra time, doing the work of two people, often unpaid, and ALWAYS unrecognized, while never being sure if today is your last day, and watching a select few favourites around you consistently be praised and rewarded (whether is earned or not), you should work here. But if you don't like being constantly and unecessarily stressed, over worked, and never rewarded for your efforts on the job, I would take out a restraining order against Upfeat, and stay as far away from this company as possible.
