Uncertain Direction and Foundation - Anonymous employee Bread Financial Employee Review

Lack of proper project management combined with the super growth they experienced that got them to a $250 stock price is causing their processes, leadership, and associates to break down and lose morale and faith in the company. Recently had to lay people off due to financial results. Has a policy with attendance that is unfriendly to any frontline associates - firing people haphazardly despite medical and other unpreventable issues despite many solutions to SLA management being available - but ignored. Many leaders and associates have provided alternative options, strategies, solutions, and projects that would have drove exceptional financial results, but they don’t realize that the only way for those to get done is to get them out of their normal duties to get the work done. The unfortunate reality is that leadership is so overwhelmed with administrative duties, that information stopped flowing upstairs. This means the leadership is flying blind to the amazing talent in their staff and serious issues with their business - that are very risky. Leadership has to work through the weekend just to complete tasks that take them away from what they were hired to do and receives so many e-mails it’s literally impractical to expect a 24 hour response and get all the other duties done.
