Don't Work Here - Senior Applications Engineer CENIT Employee Review

This is with the utmost sincerity. Don’t apply here. This company is the strangest and rudest place I have ever worked. I felt like I was walking on eggshells the entire time. Nothing I said mattered, my opinions were worthless. It got to the point that all I did was the bare necessities just so I get a paycheck. I couldn’t wait to go home at the end of the day. The company has flex time but the VP frowns upon it. The VP has his favorites and those lucky ones actually get a hello and good morning from the VP while others a glare. Constant yelling in the office. The VP yells at employees, customers and it all very unprofessional. The office is simply an extension of the VP’s home. You are not allow to have pictures or coats or personal items on your desk. If you do, you won’t be told to remove them but you will be off the favorite list and get constant criticism for it. The turnaround rate is very high. Many people have left and replaced with younger and more inexperienced people. Once those people learn what they can, they soon leave as well. The work, while interesting, is constantly changing. One second you are on an important project, and the next you are told you need to fly the next day to another client. Then, 20 min later, they tell you to cancel the flight and continue working on the original project. This happens constantly. In the end, you never get quality work done. They have an office manager, and he hands out assignments, but then the VP will come by and ask “stop working on that, who told you to do that” in an angry manner as if it was your fault. It’s all so confusing and dysfunctional. Basically, as others stated, the place is being micromanaged to death. For a long time I was not going to say anything, but then someone linked me to this site and I saw that others had similar experiences so I felt the need to share.
