Insufficient pay - werkgeversreview Software Developer bij Estrategy

Very diverse projects and clients

- Low pay, no paid overtime, minimum amount of leave. - Employer mainly hires people who just graduated school, and do not know that company practises are very unusual. - Social contact between collegues is discouraged, resulting in a mentality where you just come in do to your own thing and don't care about your collegues. No talking during work times. No making friends with collegues (collegues who do, get split up). - Intimidates employees by making them believe they are barely good enough to do their job. - CORONA SITUATION: even when the government insisted to work from home, employer insisted that working at the office was a MUST. Also didn't trust employees to work from home (falsely accusing one employee to just 'sit outside in the sun at home' during working hours).

Endless tasks at work compelled me to master the skill of managing my time efficiently. As a result, I developed a deep appreciation for the worth of my time and chose to leave the job.

There was no growth there. The CEO and the management restricted access to crucial resources, such as training and development opportunities, leaving many employees feeling trapped and unable to advance in their careers. This particularly impacted the already suffering and poor employees, who were already struggling to make ends meet.
