Can’t retain new educated qualified Professionals - Accounting Department Delhaize Employee Review

1. The operating systems that they use are very old. The lack of new technology makes employees work much harder instead of smarter. There is down time due to interfacing the systems. 2. Some employees have been at the company for 20 years plus with little experience in the field that they are working in. Employees are often promoted into positions that they have no previous experience. They are only taught what management wants them to know and therefore do not know how to ask educated questions or make suggestions for improvement. 3. Suggestions for improvements by new employees are often ignored because management is set in doing things their way, even if it is ineffective. This company is not proactive but is reactive. 4. They have too many meetings and never get anything accomplished. If clear expectations were set then the need for multiple meetings would be eliminated. Management does not like to document things in email. They would rather waste an hour in a meeting discussing. 5. Corporate employees are not guaranteed specific holidays off. This company accrues holiday time. Therefore you must request the holiday that you want off before you can actually take it off. Deadlines are not pushed back due to holidays so the time may be denied.
