Opportunities for advancement are limited for women. Men are allowed to
learn on the job while women are given excuses of not having any
experience to disqualify them for promotions. The company is sexist and
overvalues male contributions and puts them in line positions while
women are left to remain in staff and support positions. There were
many promises that were made, but with the revolving door management,
you can't get ahead. in 5 years, we are on our 4th CEO. The trading
company is management heavy and when going through restructuring, had
more low level and female employees taking the package, voluntarily and
involuntarily, than the top heavy male management employees. No male
managers were forced out, (although one was terminated :"unofficially"
for repeatedly bullying female employees and anger management problems)
The corporate culture has idiot managers that stifle promotion except
for their buddies. This is promoting stupidity. They only like certain
people to progress and there is definitely a glass ceiling. The people
that continue to keep up their skills through formal education are not
rewarded, even if performance is exemplary, unless you also happen to be
male.
dress code is corporate casuals and on fridays jeans are permitted. flex
hours, or 9/80 days 80 hours in 9 days, 10th day off, were eliminated
for all positions instead of line positions causing lots of disgruntled
employees.
the office space for a physical trading office is now without much desk
space or files -- this is fine for pure financial trading but when there
is paperwork and keeping of files - completely disfunctional. the desks
were set up to have rows whereby people walk behind your back instead of
along the sides - creating a very stressful environment - with OSHA
minimum width required for an aisle between the rows of desks (large
enough for a wheel chair to get through with all chairs pushed in).
There are several desks that have people literally sitting in the aisle
between the support columns who experience high traffic on 3 sides of
their desk!
