Nothing wrong with this place

Everyone worked with trust, respect, and a genuine desire to help each other grow.

At first, the boss comes across as nice and friendly in front of everyone. But once you speak one-on-one, the story changes. He often flips his words, denies things he previously said, and changes the narrative. It makes you feel confused and second guess yourself. He manages people through fear and control. He wants things done his way only, and if you don’t follow, he will look for mistakes and pin the blame on you. There’s a strong control-freak attitude, and it doesn’t feel safe to speak up. My advice: don’t blindly trust verbal promises, always get things in writing. Company wise, there aren’t many benefits and the setup feels quite traditional. Work-life balance is poor. Weekends often get taken up, late nights are common, and “urgent” jobs appear last minute with no extra pay, no incentive, and no replacement support. Workload keeps piling up while the team remains understaffed. It’s mentally and physically draining. Even when work direction is agreed, it can suddenly change at the last minute, and you’re still expected to deliver on time. If you can’t, the blame falls on your capability instead of the poor planning. Management often says they are open to feedback and improvement, but in the end, decisions always go back to the boss’s original thinking. Nothing really changes.
