Where is this place going? - Anonymous employee Essential Industries Employee Review

One of the awesome things about coming to work every day is seeing people you know and become friends with. When everyone is fired, what do you have to look forward to? This place is not nearly as fun to work at as when I started here. Add to that the worry about who they are going to fire next. I don't know what they tell themselves, but no one else is buying their lame excuses to fire anyone who doesn't fall in their cookie cutter mold of what an employee should be. They have fired or driven out some really awesome people who were assets to the company and helped the rest of us out all the time. Not to mention, these people were great to work with, and helped to build a sense of community in this place. Instead of giving credit where credit is due, they shower inefficient employees with praise. What kind of message does that send to the rest of the employees? A very discouraging one. I have literally had a friend ask me if we had an opening for a position she was looking for and I have discouraged her from applying here because I didn't want to subject a friend of mine to the working environment in the department she was interested in.
