For an engineering company, its small scale also means relatively little pressure.
The boss often says nice-sounding things, applies double standards to people, and often says they are not a stereotypical exploitative boss (eye roll).
They like to say one thing and do another, asking geological colleagues to translate things they should do themselves, then criticizing them for not being proficient enough, while also asking them to obtain quotes for a bunch of mechanical equipment.
They expect a report back the next day—is it really possible for several companies to respond to quote requests that quickly?
They expect one assistant to take on a director's work
without any extra pay, and without having the assistant stationed at the construction site,
yet still expect them to deliver results at the site??!
The entire life at the construction site takes place under surveillance cameras.
You are constantly being monitored and reminded about things.
But the boss themselves cannot operate the equipment; they can just stand by and give orders.
Being well-educated but lacking experience makes everyone very resentful.
Suggestions have been made before, but those in higher positions always let them go in one ear and out the other.
They think that whatever they believe is right is right.
As for other people's suggestions, forget it 😟 One day, they will hit a wall.
Before leaving, I also openly pointed out that the company's systems were incomplete and immature.
Anyone who wants to learn something will probably have to wait another 10 years or so = =
Let's see whether there has been any progress…
