Pros

Some members are driven and motivated, only people keeping the company afloat Parking available

Cons

If you want to be bullied, manipulated and treated like something on the bottom of someone’s shoe, this is the workplace for you. Bully culture starting from the top down, I’ve seen colleagues and members of management leave because of this. High turnover of staff Staff are humiliated and shouted at in front of the entire office, often for no reason. Saw staff be signed off and put on medication due to the stress and treatment at this workplace. Management are ungrateful and don’t reward hard work. No room for progression. A lot of staff are hired due to them having personal relationships with management, saw one member of management selling shoes during his shift time with no consequence because of his position and relationship with the MD. Management openly talk about people in the office based on their appearance. I’ve even seen some members also discriminate staff for this. Staff are treated like children, yet the MD will come into the office and roll around on the floor. If senior members of the team don’t like you personally (not based on your work) you’ll be bullied out. Male dominated environment, often leads for ‘locker room’ discussions. Previous members of staff are still badly affected by their awful treatment at this company. Staff were forced to put up 5* reviews on Glassdoor to boost how the company looks - scroll down you’ll soon see the fake ones. Even worse, MD writes some of the positive reviews himself. Company took advantage of furlough pay during lockdown. made people work but claimed it as training

Many thanks for your review. Unfortunately we did have to lose some staff during the pandemic due to economics. I am sorry if this effected you but there is no need to make false allegations and suggest management have the time and inclination to ask staff to post fake reviews. Should that be the case there would be a lot more reviews on here 😂 We do however genuinely value your opinion and can only hope through time your opinion of Tecna will be based more on facts and will reflect the positive outlook you expressed during your time here. Please feel free to drop in at anytime, you are always welcome.

Pros

-2 Microwaves. -Parking is normally good

Cons

-Management are extremely argumentative -Management bully the lower staff members -Management don’t look for skills in you to push you further. -Staff talk behind each other’s backs. -Management won’t pay you for over time or when you have to work on holidays. -Management lie to you about your career path. -People use you consistently without any gratitude. -There’s never milk for tea or coffee. -Management are extremely childish and throw their toys out of the pram a lot. -Management looks for money in a job but doesn’t reward those who have worked hard on it. But instead treat themselves to new luxury items. -Management treat their staff not as employees but as friends, if you don’t make the cut they won’t like you. -I have personally seen management bully people so much it has forced them to leave.

Pros

have managed to employ a good team

Cons

unfortunately the company has lowered to writing false reviews, a shame as if they worked hard and appreciated/supported staff they wouldn't be receiving negative ones. The atmosphere is so negative, staff should be respected and encouraged not pushed down. Insufficient training and made to feel bad for asking questions AND for not asking enough. A real shame they can't see staff as talented as professional. Management need to better themselves before they feel they can patronise others, did they earn their role themselves?
