Kontras
Before I start– I would like to point out that I also blame myself, I ignored the warning signs during my interview and I ignored the bad reviews. I was told by management and the CEO that this was an exciting work place. In short, many people including myself were blindsided. However I decided to stay, I initially believed that iGoDirect would be a good service to be apart of. However I soon discovered that this was at great cost that being the souls sucked dry of talented employees. The team across the entire business had drawn to same conclusion; they are on edge thinking they will be fired and the toxic CEO lacks any desired leadership qualities to lead the team. With talented staff being hired, the CEO would go on to not trust them to do the very job that they were hired for, staff members would be unapologetically undermined, discouraged, and in some cases literally not be addressed by their correct first name which clearly signifies a lack of respect. This is not a ‘nit picking’ review, a number instances could have been forgiven and could even have been forgotten. However, the CEO would in most cases make passive comments about non favored individuals in team meetings or just outright embarrass them in front of the entire company. This business has a history of very devoted employees that would put plans in place, make the business highly productive and profitable, but for some reason once this is achieved those staff members are not rewarded but instead removed from the company and replaced by less experienced junior members of the team, to the CEO, this is progress. Those junior employees who are under qualified would soon become over worked, under paid, chastised repeatedly and then expected to bring in the same result as their departed predecessors. With this trend continuing for years on end and the naivety of senior management, it would suggest no catharsis in site. It’s comes as no surprise that this company has had an incredibly high staff turnover. In fact, corporations as large as Telstra and Optus is a complete picnic compared to this small business with their turnover.
