Toyota Tsusho reviews

Perhaps its best to say that I am unlucky to have the top management of my department "overhauled". In automotive speak, overhauling means extending the life of an engine, enabling it to perform better over the long run. In my department's case, its an overhaul gone horribly wrong, and a classic case of the rot starting from the top. A returning VP from overseas started a toxic culture by replacing able middle management personnel to those in his good books. A complete lack of understanding in their assigned business areas and bad people management skills characterize this group of "hand-picked" middle management personnel. Its a sad state of how genuine talents are being forced to look elsewhere for better opportunities, or those who still remain are already on the look out, all due to the mismanagement and bias of 1 man. When you have a department which lost more than 10% of its total department staff strength in a single calendar year (16 out of 50+ total headcount), you know for sure that there is obviously something very wrong with the management. I can't say the same for other departments in this Singapore HQ, but if you join this department I used to be in, you're in for a surprise, despite what they will tell you during interviews.

Managers drink frequently on and off the clock. Smoking is allowed INSIDE the building. Harassment is tolerated and encouraged. Frequent harassment from management is standard practice. HR will not help you if you have been harassed, instead they will try and find a way to fire you. This is a "good ol' boys club". Women are treated poorly by male management and other male employees. They are very strict on being late or missing work. You will be written up if you are a few minutes late. Some employees work their fingers to the bones, while other employees play on facebook all day long. Management will pile work onto hard working employees and let lazy employees slide by with little to no work. Hard working employees quickly flee. Employees that have been there 10+ years know they cannot/will not be fired for anything, so they slack off all the time. On the job training is spotty, at best. Most new employees don't know what they are doing and no one is really training them.
