Worst Employer ever worked with - Engineer Circu Li-ion Employee Review

My direct line manager was somewhat invested in trying to bring the teams together and try working things out. Good mentor.

This company lives off of micromanagement. It is pushed to extremes sometimes, which enables a toxic culture packed into a box of “We are friends and we help each other”, in order to somehow force the startup belief system. Most targets for quarters are unstructured and unbalanced and they are never met. No consequences whatsoever when a target is not met. Growth mindset? More like shut your eyes on any inconvenience. C-level is blinded by their own (bad) ideas and are incredibly critical to actually good objections from their personnel. Speaking up is mostly punished. Most communication is big startup bingo blabla. I never in my life was triggered more by the overuse of startup vocabulary… “Let’s take this offline” in an entirely physical meeting? Facepalming… Often shouting about “If you don’t belong here and you know it, just leave!”. Not a great way to minimise an inflated turnover. But that’s fine, we can find cheap personel, because everything has to be cheap. Simply put: This company felt more like a scam, than an actual company wanting to change the world.
