It took months to unlearn the damage done to my confidence in my time there. I left entirely broken, thinking I was not good enough, I should be grateful for having a job and not worth any sort of payrise. Senior management create projects for people to work on only to tell them at the end they are stupid and they could have done it better themselves, then take full credit for it if the CEO likes it. There are multiple underqualified people managing teams of highly qualified people in slightly different fields they make absolutely no effort to understand, encourage or even just basically manage.
Without going into specifics, sexist comments were made by senior management towards me in order to undermine me in my end of year review when I was looking for a standard payrise after two years of employment. There are plenty of incidents where the CEO or senior management have been incredibly aggressive towards female members of staff. It is unsurprising there are so few women in senior positions. They keep expanding their offices abroad rather than in Ireland as it is generally accepted that if they had to publish salaries there would be a huge discrepancy between male and female pay rates for similar jobs.
In addition, the HR department is a joke. It is quite simply one rule for some (the CEOs friends and favourites) and another for everyone else. It is well known that incidents have been entirely swept under the rug for some people and others are held to an impossibly high standard so they can never progress. Whenever their actions are questioned, they lash out and start slinging mud at whomever is closest.
And every last rumour about the CEO is true. He is genuinely unhinged and should be kept away from his employees. The company would really benefit from his removal as the "Yes Men" he has surrounded himself with permeate the toxicity down through every level of the company.
