Management – I’m not suggesting that any reviews on this website are in any way falsified but I'm going to say that I'd happily wager my life savings that the, shall we call more them “casually upbeat” reviews posted about Meganexus were either directly edited or at least heavily encouraged into that state by MN management. I say this because no staff member at Meganexus naturally speaks like that - we had one eternally optimistic staff member and he was fired for not being a good fit. (Enough said.) We all arrived at Meganexus as human beings but through a long, slow and torturous process all end up the same - dead inside. I would have gone so far as to say money may have changed hands but as Meganexus as a whole is a cripplingly tight-fisted organisation, this is literally impossible. Here you have an organisation where every single member of management is aware of the dismal reviews on this site and rather than implement even one single change to attempt to improve the conditions – they just try and balance the books with their own lies and propaganda. No, it’s not slowly getting better. No, communication isn’t fantastic across the teams. Absolute codswallop. Management don’t particularly like each other and they certainly don’t like us, which as you can imagine, made for a fantastic working environment.
Resources – There are none, human or otherwise. A mass exodus occurs every season or so and it’s a serious issue exacerbated by the fact that recruiting efforts are poor. For every 5 people that leave, maybe one position is filled. So, effectively it's an increasing workload but a diminishing workforce. To be fair to management, it can’t be easy to recruit for Hell On Earth. I mean, people don’t volunteer for serfdom, do they?
Pay – The holiday and salaries at Meganexus are AWFUL. Absolutely awful. Looking at job ads for equivalent roles at normal organisations is an exercise in humiliating and soul-destroying self-flagellation. Unfortunately, looking at job ads for equivalent roles at normal organisations is also the only way to motivate yourself off the ledge as we all furiously search for alternative employment. Market rate pay? 28 days holiday? Job-related training? Staff welfare initiatives? Yes, as a standard. Oh sorry, you meant at Meganexus? Not in a million years.
Owner/Head of Business Development – This is not his true job title, by the way. It’s Purveyor of Destruction and Harbinger of Doom. If I’m perfectly honest, he’s not the main problem. Yes, he is obstinate and unreasonable. Yes, he has no concept of how to run a business but will not allow those who do, to do it effectively. Yes, he has 0% capacity for speaking to, interacting with or dwelling amongst people. However, if he was the only challenge at Meganexus then he would be tolerable. However, he adds a rather large insult to what is already a pretty chronic injury.
COO – I don’t wish to make any personal slights so I’ll just say he’s not a good fit for the organisation and leave it at that.
