Sales Admin Rep - SAR THK Global Employee Review

Where should I began. First of all, I have never witnessed an organization so combative when it comes to taking care of their employees and treating them fairly. I also have not witnessed a more incompetent management team. SAR’s are the read-headed step children of this organization. Pay is not competitive and the benefits are expensive; you will be underpaid and overworked. Pay raises are insulting. Attendance policy is unrealistic. I was told there was tuition assistance but that only applies towards an Associates degree-mind you THK requires a Bachelors degree to work here. Removal of basic items; apparently pink Post It’s are considered a luxury and eating utensils for the break room cost too much; you’re now forced to provide your own. Since my start in Jan 2017, there has been so much turnover that I now have seniority in my dept. THK prides themselves on being the pioneers of linear motion but still uses the same prehistoric AS400 system, processes, and procedures. This is an account management position, not sales admin. They make this position seem like a basic customer service role but the work is a lot more demanding and high-level than they advise-there are engineering components and a multitude of math involved. Pointless meetings and reports. President/ Corporate management is not willing to adopt Western culture, there is no real training, and no room for advancement unless you happen to be favorited by upper management.
