Guest Post: Problematic IT companies: that needs to be worked on!

I love awesome articles that highlight the issues that workplaces faces. The article below speaks about how IT companies needs to resolve and iron out those problems in order to attract and keep talents. If you find this article refreshingly honest and useful, please do pop by her blog here.

Workload for a fresher

There are times that the newbie in IT companies are provided work that too of little to no use. There are times when they would provide you some work an hour or before you are about to leave. It really pisses a person off about the work ethics that to should be followed for freshers that are overloaded irrelevant work.

Irrelevant talks and a sought of bullying by seniors

Sometimes you could find that there are some irrelevant talks and especially your seniors who are there to guide will hardly say up or help you in any work. Lucky are the ones who get someone to guide through. And you then think what a trap coz there will be many times they would blame you for not doing certain things that they might suggest to have told you already (but you know how much they guide) this saying is a go to lingo in an IT industry.

Managers are too clumsy and don’t give sh* about who is guiding but want work to be done even someone who is new there!

You might have your managers too, who is leading the team. But if you have guts to go and ask him for help or complain about your colleagues who ain’t providing you any guidance, I am sorry you have fallen into a trap where neither these managers help but here your colleagues get to know that you are complaining, so you are now kicked aside. Its really a harsh sort of scenario the place you are in. Feeling trapped. Remeber HR, they are in organization help you in such situations.

Mistreatment and Mental Torture

Sometimes you find up a team that is mean and especially men I am referring not offending all but some are still there with old thoughts, those misogynist. You might be target of them and then especially a female employee if she is new to work there are chances they can take advantage. You might receive calls where they are saying irrelevant things, you by youself knows what they mean. Stay away and reach their head to complain.

If you are in conversation where other person is mentally torturing in the name that they could remove you from your position. Call them out in mail with the higher authority and HR in mail immediately.

I hope you would have good scenarios in your workplace too, but these negative impacts too needs to be looked upon and spoken so that each one is made aware of it, and needs to make workplace a better place where there is respect and harmony with every walk of life.
