Everyone from the management is secretly Patrick Bateman from American Psycho. They promise this great workplace and all of these great benefits, they are lying snakes and everything they say is a farce. The performance reviews, the fact that you have to SCHEDULE to see your line manager (you can't just walk up to them), people absolutely getting demolished in meetings for suggesting something and white euro trash superiority when dealing with your employees. A ring of lame gossiping birds, high-school level alliances where they take photos of people on the floors and black list them while also creating conflicts out of thin air. Most of the people in the management are only there because they've been there for a LONG time.
All of the meetings and one-to-ones are a bore. The meetings are so boring and a discourse from the team leads while none of the employees are allowed to chime in, if you try to suggest improvement; they'll tell you that they've thought really long and hard about the processes that are in place and that we shouldn't offend their "baby" by suggesting the beast needs a tweak here and there. Nothing you say in the meetings is confidential. NEVER show weakness in front of these people, they mock the employees that say that they have been neglected, you'll just end up being the subject of their trashy jokes for the week.
People who are close to the management, don't worry about anything. You'll be protected even if people notice you stealing food from people's desks on the shift. These same people are always on their phones; to the point that the person who is speaking in a meeting will pull their phone out of their pocket, stop speaking and just reply to the text in front of all the team. Working as a student at Yardi, all I got was eye rolls when talking to my line manager about time that needs to be compensated because I had to go to school.
And last but not least... Why are you even keeping the HR department? I haven't seen a more useless group of talentless chimps since NSYNC. I just don't understand how these things haven't changed since these problems existed for such a long time and I just don't get who is defending the office manager behind the scenes because she is the direct cause of almost all of the leaves at Yardi in the last year and a half.
