* Doctor-backed disability seen as "gross misconduct" leading to summary dismissal.
* Raising concerns to management causes encouragement to resign, threat to be fired, and sudden consideration of a Performance Improvement Plan.
* Bad managers blindly supported by HR (via collective HR bullying).
* Lawbreaking: Falsification of documents; False statements etc.
* Unprofessional/toxic HR/managers: Absent objective setting; Late probation period confirmation (6 months delay); Late bonus payment (1 year delay); 6 months wait for HR to start investigation of complaint (backed by evidence); HR request for reimbursement of salaries from employee on sick leave.
* Outside US: Severe under-staffing (3-4 x) known to management. Hence high stress, alarming turnover (100% team reshuffling in a year), bad work-life balance and burnout. Backfill delays. No proper transitions.
* Below-market salaries
* Meeting culture (yet ghosting). Much bureaucracy (yet lack of structure and poor knowledge management).
* Favouritism: Rewards (promotion, training, opportunities) not based on performance but rather on gender and personal preferences.
* Sales teams plagued with big egos. Non-Sales people treated as under-class.
* For non Sales teams: Very limited access to training (even when trainings are mandatory). Self-learning. No time for "InDays".
