Good people, very flexible, but not a good fit for me.
A/R Billing Specialist/ Assistant to VP (Current Employee), Las Vegas, NV – March 16, 2013
Pros: flexible and casual
Cons: no benefits and no opportunities for advancements
This is a family owned business. Its trades consist of Plumbing, Electrical, and HVAC. The enviornment is relaxed and casual, but it can get very busy during summer and again during winter. The business owners are good people and they are flexible when it comes to employee schedules. On the downside, I have been told numerous times that I am an exceptional – more... employee and that I'm doing great. I was told of benefits and a raise after 90 days, but I haven't received a raise, not much recognition, and no benefits. I'm always there when needed and I always come through, but there's no acknowledgment of my work and everyday feels like a miserable prison cell. Most days I can't take a lunch because it's busy. It makes someone like me feel wasted; as in wasting time and days in a place that isn't bringing me any joy or hope. All in all, this is a good company with regards to the service they provide, but it's just not a good fit for me. – less

A work day without hassles.
System/Network Engineer/Consulting Engineer (Former Employee), Falls Church, VA – August 28, 2012
Pros: recognition and rewards.
Cons: unhealthy competition, hassle with bad intention, intentional wrongful perception.
A productive work day would be free of unnecessary pressure and hassle from surrounding environment. People can laugh and work would be more productive than other methods of encouraging people to work better. I learned that working is not about how much you make but also how much time I would remain i that job. Management is about encouraging with intuition. – more... Bad management ruins employee and company silently, usually without showing signs for the management to repair. Management is the life of nay kind of business. My co-worker should be the ones I like to work with, not the one I like to keep distant from. Competition between con-workers should be focus on how to help each other advance forward, not dragging down the others for individual's agendas. The hardest part of the job is lying withing the motion and willingness of the people who is tasking with the job. The saying there's a will there's a way will be truthful. Skill and objective cannot be helpful to solve the problem, the will would be able to do. The most enjoyable part of the job is not when it is finished before or by the deadline, but how much insight people can obtain from the job. – less

Collegiale werkomgeving met zeer weinig doorgroeimogelijkheid en slechte arbeidsvoorwaarden
Projectleider (Current Employee), Tilburg – May 10, 2013
Pros: collegiale sfeer
Cons: slechte arbeidsvoorwaarden en weinig doorgroeimogelijkheid
Een typische dag op mijn werk: ik maak planning, offertes en calculaties, stuur ik projectgroepen aan en waar nodig vorm ik nieuwe groepen en eventueel pas ik bestaande groepen aan. Daarnaast hou ik up to date inzicht in materialen - en prijzen en heb ik contact met de leveranciers, de onderaannemers, de uitvoerders en de klant.

In deze loopbaan als – more... projectleider heb ik in het bijzonder het volgende geleerd:
- De beste leidinggevende capaciteiten haal je uit door: het motiveren van mensen, het geven van vertrouwengevoel in mensen, het betrekken van je mensen bij de zaak (voorbeeld: vraag hun soms wat zij ergens van vinden...),
- Vertrouw niet blindeling op alles maar hou het totale overzicht strategisch goed in de gaten om eventuele problemen tijdig op te kunnen lossen. Inventariseer de risico's vooraf en maak de risico's beheersbaar.
- Wees eerlijk met de klant. Fouten zijn menselijk en kunnen soms gebeuren, maar wees op dat moment eerlijk tegen de klant en geeft de fout toe. Los het probleem volledig naar de wensen van de klant op. Een tevreden klant maakt bijna altijd alles goed.
- Meer cultuur kennis.

Het moeilijkste van mijn houdige baan is het managen van buitenlandse krachten waarbij cultuurverschillen sterk van elkaar kunnen verschillen. Dit vormt tegelijkertijd ook het leukst van deze baan door mij meer kennis bij te brengen over mensen en hun werkwijze en gewoontes. – less
