Bait and switch tactics: job applications say one thing and when hired on, switch it with a modified one, saying they just updated the job description and the new one has work outside of your expertise you are expected to perform
"We're a family" mentality
Many employees do work not associated with job title
Unemployment dodgers: Will remove you from your position, even when it's management's fault your work couldn't be completed in a satisfactory manner and immediately offering you a job you would never do, and when you don't take it, claim you voluntarily quit.
Bad management: unqualified supervisors who don't know the work involved in their subordinates jobs, failure in producing daily schedules in a timely manner, often finishing the day's schedule when half the day is done.
Do not understand law: occasionally asks work to be done that is against the law, which is obviously refused but gets you dirty looks from management
Toxic gossip mongering: anything you say and is overheard can and will be blown out of proportion by gossipers to the point of management intervention. In which case the person targeted in the gossip gets in trouble and not the gossipers
Must use pto for sick days: you are required to use your pto when claiming a sick day, and when it's depleted only then can you use leave without pay.
Not protected by Federal law: Will not tell you when you hire on that due to them being a nonprofit with ties to native values exempts them from the National Labor Relations Act and will reprimand you if wages are discussed.
Escalation through management: Any problem you have must be discussed with your supervisor, then their supervisor, etc. The issue will most likely not be resolved and you will be reprimanded for trying to get issues resolved
Bullying: rampant bullying by upper management where requests for hr intervention are dismissed when trying to get it to stop.
Lynch mob tactics: supervisors will put you on trial with a jury of your coworkers with no hr involvement.
Bad employees don't get fired: forced to work with incompetent coworkers who have no interest in doing their job, and will not be fired if reported.
