This company grew up way too quickly. Every week is a new process added to your workload whether you like it or not. Whats worse is that these processes are never written down leading employees room for interpretation and it unfortunatley leads to speculation that is constantly turned into false information. Management often hold Town Halls where the real questions are asked. When confronted about a change in process, listeners are rewarded with a delicious word salad from upper management that doesnt mean anything or answer anything.
Any company worth its salt operating at the scale Tek Experts would have defined metrics and standards early on with periodic adjustments over time, not every single week. They use these "processes" as a means to determine hybrid eligibility for their employees and where you are on the pay scale. Holding your employees to metrics akin to a moving target is not a sign of a healthy work environment.
The most egregious offense that this company tells its employees is that "the client wants everyone to work from office". When that client is one of the biggest tech companies in the world and everyone who actually works for that company is fully remote, the smell of malarky comes up. Tek just paid for this giant office space that they need to justify the expense. Its ridiculous to hold your employees hostage over a bad business decision. The work was done for 3 years during the pandemic fully remote without issues. Now its a security risk despite using the latest industry standard remoting techniques? Again...malarky.
There are many, many other things but the combination of these two major offenses have made the 10-15 people i still speak with who still work there want to get a new job. Not a single person out of this group of random people i kept in touch with wants to work there. This is across different departments as well.
You mean people want day to day process stability and want to be able to work full remote in 2024? Im shocked!
Bonus:
There is a reason Tek-Experts Indianapolis is a thing now. Living wage is much cheaper there thus leading to cheaper labor. There is no doubt in my mind and the minds of many others the plan is to cut the Springs location and fully move operations to Indianapolis. Work here at your own risk.
