Toxic work environment
Toxic work environment
- RSU
- Free dinner box (that you promise to work over 8 pm)
- Pretty bad office politics. Working with each other between the groups, teams or departments just like spy to spy. Your managers, directors input the mindset to you that some people are your enemies and they can set you up anytime. You work
- Pretty bad work culture #1. Some seniors who don't like to share experience or knowledge with you. Instead they watch you mess up. Also they push the assignments that they don't like to you, even when it is not in the scope of your job responsibilities.
- Pretty bad work culture #2. Watch out for your inventory or stuff when you work in the lab, production, even in your cubicle. Some people just take your stuff without your permission and they don't tell you, until you found out and you are anxious like a cat on a hot tin roof.
- They don't match 401K.
- Only 10 days of vacation leave and 5 days of sick leave. If you want to apply for over 3 days of sick leave in a row you have to show a doctor's note.
- No work from home, and you have to work 5 days in the office. However, ironically, some seniors have the privilege that they can show up very late (noon or even just work from home).
