How employees describe working at OS33
Despite doing the work of at least 3 people and the fact that I trained my manager, I was constantly micromanaged, undermined by immediate management, and under compensated.
Not good. You get pinged all sorts of hours into the night for stuff that can wait or for irrelevant things that no one wants to look up when the answers are there. The stress is at 11 on a 1-10. Management in all positions are inadequate and don't educate. Extremely dysfunctional organization
Horrible place to work with no regard for their employees
