Ineffective and disappointing top leadership

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Travel benefits though not aligned with modern companies benefits

Cons

No accountability among VP and C level, only consideration is not to be terminated and to create strict policies so they can avoid making decisions. Salary is 20-40% worse than market in Doha and consideration is that if you don't like it I can find another one to take your place. Very bad career opportunities (can only be promoted every 24 month one step up disregarding your capabilities)

Pros

People says flight tickets are beneficial.... for an employee it is hardly useful. On public holidays, we will never get a confirmed ticket... if it is off-season, getting a leave will be challenge. It can never be utilized as per employee wish. employees will have to struggle to get confirmed seat. It is worthless benefit. Never join this company if recruiter negotiates package saying that flight ticket will be beneficial. Never fall for name " Qatar Airways " popularity.

Cons

Unprofessional work culture. Incompetent & Imanagement. No proper appraisal system. Never expected hikes.

Pros

Everything in the life has the positive aspect. In this case were my Co-workers. I have no bad words for any of them specially from my team. Young people full of positive energy who make your life easier in that prison.

Cons

What can you expect from a country which has no freedom, full of gas-money ,and nowaday is ruling the world. So the same slavery but in Europe. Forget about holidays, weekends, summer, new years´s eve, Christmas,etc etc. You will be 8.15 hours sticked to your chair, you will have 5 minutes toilet break per day, they will count every single second of your life, Later, they will promise you tickets with 90% discount that probably you can not effort with your low salary. The most ironic is that every day you will make a lot of money for them, dealing with the stupidity of the rich people boring at home that the only entertainment they have is to call you to make your day. Forget about any comission. I never being in a place so bad organized. I had 3 different managers in 1 year and a half, 3 Team leaders, and almost 70 employees just quit (from 120) so imagine the situation. If you don´t belive me or just you are thinking i am the tipical frustrated employee, so... please go ahead and apply for the position ;) have fun!!
