RUN AWAY - Employee Western Union Employee Review

Wow. Not sure how to capture how toxic this place is. Very few managers I encounter have any expertise in the work their people do, nor does there seem to be a willingness on their part to learn what their people do. What I have experienced most often is ladder climbing and an elitist attitude from anyone with a management title. Management sits all around our team and NEVER speaks to any of us. It would be interesting to know the ratio of regular staff to managers and up--seems quite top heavy. In my department (and it looks like the division), it's all about how to make yourself look good. I have seen evidence of speaking truth to power gets you fired - as in gone the next day. Almost everyone on my team is beaten down, even though they are highly skilled and self motivated. If you were to take management away, the team could fix 70% of issues within 3 months or less. Do not come here unless you can accept micromanagement, distrust, not being listened to, and no chance of ever being empowered.
