Most of my colleagues are quite young and fairly easy to get along with.
1. There are far too many procedures at work. Each department operates independently and creates a pile of additional internal rules. Even the managers themselves are unclear about the rules, yet they push the responsibility onto subordinates to figure everything out themselves and even teach other colleagues. As a result, we cannot finish our actual work, and then get constantly berated for being inefficient.
2. Overtime is routinely and extremely excessive. Whether you receive overtime pay depends on the manager. In my team, approval depends on the manager’s mood, while other departments seem to be able to claim it freely.
3. The senior managers are all exceptionally unreasonable. Even when a decision made by a manager fails to meet its goals, they assume the employees simply did not work hard enough. Managers say that if there is a problem, we should ask questions rather than work on our own, but when we do ask, they simply reply that they do not understand, tell us to find a way ourselves, and instruct us to call someone else to clarify it. They do not help resolve any doubts or problems.
4. Reporting issues to the manager at an appropriate time is the worst possible choice. They will say that their management approach is not wrong, then hold a grudge and continue to make things difficult for you.
