Toxic hostile work environment - Anonymous employee Bloomberg Employee Review

Managers who have no idea what they are doing or how to show value in anything they do. Literally fabricating numbers out of thin air that make no sense. Ancient archaic systems that don't communicate with each other so lots of time consuming handwork rather than automation because the systems built are old and inefficient. Everything there causes you to work longer hours because its so inefficient. Everything is done via a ticketing system that actually stops people from communicating like human beings. Blatant favoritism is rampant. Male chauvinist piggy environment. Little minority representation in management. Ageism, many people let go all over 50. Tons of spin cycle because business leads don't know what they want. Badly written non approved briefs meant limited resources were spin cycling for nothing. They will tell you over and over that you suck and that you did this wrong, even if they guided you down the wrong path. They don't want to hear your solutions, they want to cling to their dysfunction like its a life line. Seriously limited resources so can barely get anything done. Nasty nasty sarcastic directors that have no idea how to talk to people and get the most out of them. Rule by fear not by respect. Microphones hanging from ceilings to listen on your conversations. God help you if you have critical thinking and speak up. You'll be knocked down, and the system will chew you up and remind you that resistance is futile. Extremely bad morale, everyone looks horrible because there is no life work balance. Everyone is scared as its a culture of fear so lots of bad behavior and throwing of people under the bus. Constantly changing the system and organization so nothing ever is given enough time to make it work. Changes are made with no notification, no outlines or workflow charts. Chaos ensues and time and resources are wasted.The metrics are a joke because the databases they pull the numbers from are poorly thought out so garbage in garbage out. Numbers are meaningless.
