Work load was evenly distributed before over-hiring became apparent.
Then, the "co-president" followed trends and randomly demanded on 12/11/2023 that everyone return to the corporate office full-time ASAP to 'improve innovation and collaboration' as of 1/1/2024, but entirely by 7/1/2024.
What prompted me to write this review is their insisting that certain groups of employees fall into 4 categories of Goyim:
1) Those who will never return to the office because they work more efficiently from home (accounting and billing); these goy handle our money, so of course they don't have to commute.
2) if you're a software developer, you get 40 WFH days that you have to schedule through WorkDay for the entire year (plus your vacation time), oh but if you're on a tight deadline and you feel like you need something called "focus time", they grant you an additional 35 WFH days only to be used in that situation because you're a shabot goy.
3) The average goy: you only get 40 wfh days that you have to schedule along with your vacation schedule in January via WorkDay (idk about you, but I like to do things with 2 or 3 weeks notice... not plan my entire year because my employer demands it)
4) The simple goy: you best believe you get 0 wfh days and you have to adhere to strict performance reviews with management pressuring you with the idea that "You serve us" attitude.
Then, there is workload creep... the worst part about working here. After 10 years, I can promise you that this compamy will repeatedly burn you out. Yeah sure, let me maintain development efforts for 2 reporting systems with thousands of business critical reports, then just add on whatever else you want while my 40 hours are dedicated to previous efforts. I just ignore your process and your requests for new things I'm not the "owner" of because I'm not responsible for that - you are, that's why you're pressuring me and dislike the push back.
There is a lack of comprehension in the management structure that is very apparent with the constant use of corporate buzzwords ("innovation", "collaboration", "We're a family"; which coveys an expectation of cheap labor - oh thats why rhia company's pay structure is garbage lol)
Middle management is curious, but not courageous. They'll only ask details about your position when HR starts pressuring them to, and they'll ask you to essentially train your replacement; yeah sure, I started slowing down my output... but you forced me in a direction I told you I wasn't interested in. So those "additional development efforts" go ignored because you insisted I take ownership of "my sysyems" but in "your way."
I liked what I was doing & who I was serving, and I took ownership of it because it was mine and everyone involved knew it.
Stop piling responsibilities on people just because you over hired during the covid era.
Stop trying to get people to quit just because you're not meeting your profitability goals since inflation started consuming every free cent.
Stop demanding your employees do as you say while you pretend you don't understand our confusion about the abrupt change in WFH policy, but only for certain categories.
I don't want to come into your office and listen to everyo around me talk on Teams calls just to justify the positions of middle mananagement, aka "micro managers"... you don't know my job, I keep it that way, and I'll never tell you because I view you as incompetent. Back off.
Stop irritating me. I'll just keep posting this.
