I've genuinely never worked in such a mismanaged company before.

My entire team is burnt out. The people who aren't on a leave are getting injured, the team is a skeleton crew.

And they're sending us corporate messaging BRAGGING about earnings. Seriously, how tone deaf is their communications officer?!

Now we have a new policy. You make a mistake? Written up. Three write ups in one calendar year? #Fired!

The team has shrunk even further since they implemented this policy.

Team morale is dead. Everyone hates the company and management. Errors are through the roof. Shrink is at the highest it's been since we opened.

But all they can do is brag about profits. This past valentines day, if you booked the day off months in advance? They scheduled you in. Write up / firing if you didn't come in.

Multiple of us came in and got injured. Did they thank us? No. They bragged about how much we sold.

They wouldn't even buy us lunch. This is why our employee satisfaction surveys are flatlining.

I moved from being customer service at a call center to doing it remotely from home, and it's such a game changer. I just sit around in my pajamas, relaxed. Has anyone else switched to 100% remote work?

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.
