No respect for human decency. You wake up every morning praying they fire you

Punitive PTO policy: If you use your personal paid time off (PTO), it still counts against your “unexcused absence” total. Essentially, you're punished for using the time you're entitled to. Extreme attendance rules: 1-minute tardy = a strike. 10 strikes in a year = automatic termination, no matter your performance or reason. No exceptions for family emergencies, traffic accidents (even with proof), or anything else. Unfair and unsafe mandatory overtime: Company policy says 72-hour notice must be given for overtime. In practice, we often got less than a day — sometimes hours before — with no flexibility. Missing a surprise Saturday shift counted against you. Pay raises denied over tiny infractions: You can earn certifications and complete advanced training, but if you’re even one minute late during the evaluation period, or use any PTO, your raise is denied. Hostile HR culture: After making a joking comment in the engineering support chat — something commonplace in any fast-paced production environment — I was almost terminated. The message was sent accidentally by a co-worker before I could delete it. I was forced to apologize and when I explained the mistake, no one listened. Zero accountability for real issues: When I brought up that I had been threatened twice by a former manager and that there were multiple active sexual harassment investigations with no consequences, HR had no answer. They just said, “Let’s not deviate from the issue.”
