Terrible Culture, Pays Bills
Terrible Culture, Pays Bills
It is a job that pays the bills.
Work ethics are terrible in my department. Backstabbing and favoritism are rampant and encouraged. The director/lead brought poor cultural values and has spoiled the workplace. This poor culture encourages people to spy on each other and report to upper management. The director/lead speaks a foreign language in the lab and meetings, managing by yelling and shaming in front of others. There is no hope for raises, bonuses, or promotions. A lot of good engineers have left already or are planning to leave. The HR department is useless and helpless, so there is no hope. Not a good place for young engineers.
