Micromanaging Policies - werkgeversreview Automation Engineer bij JSat Automation

better corporate culture and work life

no any cons for this

In the early days, when the company was smaller, there was a friendly and collaborative culture built by the employees themselves. Since the company rarely hires experienced professionals, junior employees can get exposure to many responsibilities quickly — though this often comes at the cost of work-life balance.

Extremely long working hours (12+ hours daily was the norm, expected without additional support). Lack of recognition for loyalty — even after 7+ years, personal circumstances were not respected. Poor exit management: despite giving over a year’s extension and then a 2-month notice to train a replacement, management asked me to burn PTO and then terminated my role while I was still on PTO. Culture of bargaining instead of honoring commitments — rather than planning transitions responsibly, they focused on short-term cost-cutting. No appreciation for stepping up when the team was struggling; contribution was downplayed at the end.
