Pros
- coworkers (excluding management) - office space is nice as well as location - community service - clients
Cons
Handling Disputes: When conflicts come up between management and staff, they’re often mishandled. There is no HR involvement, so managers can be verbally and emotionally abusive. This leads to unresolved tensions and a generally uncomfortable atmosphere at work. I think having a third party intervene would be beneficial. Resistance to Change and Flexibility: Leadership is also very resistant to change. There’s a strong sense of “we’ve always done it this way,” which makes it difficult for anyone with new ideas or suggestions. Lack of Trust: The most disappointing aspect is the lack of trust between management and employees. It feels like management doesn’t believe in their team’s capabilities, which can be demoralizing. This lack of trust shows up in the micromanagement around peoples work, needs, and personal lives.
