Soul destroying work, no incentive to progress - Production Operative Vestas Wind Systems Employee Review

One rule for some and another for others, the job can be easy or hard depending on whether you face fits or not. Some colleagues are literally pressured to take less than the mandatory break time, through clock watching by superiors or snide comments, gossip and backstabbing by other colleagues. Hard workers are taken advantage of, show some willing to perform hard labor and that will be your job until the end of time. Jobs are not rotated, there is little opportunity to learn new skills and those with the less physically demanding jobs or jobs that are perceived to have a high value will be given to mates of mates. 45 min- 1 hour tea breaks are not uncommon for those whose faces fit, nothing is ever said about this. Very quick and often to criticize for mistakes and seldom is praise given or even a thank you for your time. A few long term team members are spreading their culture and values, completely undermining those of the company and making it a very difficult place to work at times, definitely a boys club. I have worked on building sites with more work ethic and less bullying and that is saying something. Certain individuals will be targeted and victimized and depending on their willpower will either push through for long enough for bullies to get bored and find a new target OR simply resign their position. There is a 25% resignation figure for a reason, one quarter of your employees will acquire skills only to leave which leaves the company in a perpetual cycle of stale, long term employees with bad habits and any new ones who are developing into assets leaving prematurely. All of this will lead to diminishing quality of the product with an emphasis on fast but poor production, in an incredibly disorganized environment that treats the time of employees as though it is superfluous. There have been quite a few shifts where only a single break of 25 minutes has been given, in 12 hours this is disgusting and quite frankly even two 30 minute breaks is quite unsatisfactory given the physicality of the job. Tired employees who never receive praise and feel as though there is a disparity in the workplace will NOT produce quality results, that's if they even remain as employees which evidently they are not.
