Rant 😡 Why are career shifters from BPO to corporate finance the worst people handlers?

40 Upvotes

I don't know if it's just me pero ang hirap ipa-intindi sa managers who are career shifters from BPO to cor-finance na we have a different nature of work here in corporate.

Idk what's difficult sa fact na hindi nga prod-work yung type of work here. Na hindi nga metric-driven yung results. Like how am I supposed to give you numbers when my type of work cannot be rushed or measured by hourly output metrics? Na it's not a matter of checking the boxes?

Edit: I'm contemplating resigning na because this kind of leadership style just doesn't work sa team. Ilang weeks na akong feeling burnt out sa work because of this. But then, I like what I'm doing. I literally enjoy my job. And I don't like the fact na ako yung mag-aadjust when this manager didn't gauge man lang or even understood muna kung ano ginagawa ng team niya before implementing his KPI metrics (when again hindi nga quantifiable nature of work namin).

Rant 😡 PTPA THIS NEEDS TO BE SPREAD: redflag company! warning on this fresh grads!!! holo innotech corp

12 Upvotes

So this company holo innotech corp. actually hires fresh grad, take note fresh grad ang target nila para hindi ka makaangal. It is a very toxic company, at first, they will offer you IT Support, then gagawin ka nilang project manager but in the end pipilitin ka nilang maging dev even though hindi mo kaya. They actually call during saturday and sunday tatawagan ka nila and also kahit sinasabi ng HR is 8am to 5pm yung work, may ipapagawa pa rin sila sayo ng madaling araw. Mind you madaling araw.

You even can check their website or search their company 0 reviews kasi sobrang red flag talaga. There were times kahit may sakit yung employee nila hindi pa rin nila pinapayagan mag leave they still want you to go onsite. The biggest redflag was I don't think that they were also registered sa BIR.

Curious lang ako sa mga PAO lawyers dito.

Paano ninyo napagsasabay-sabay at napapamahalaan ang dami ng clients na lumalapit sa inyo? Given na maraming nangangailangan ng libreng legal assistance, paano ninyo natutugunan ang bawat client's needs, lalo na kapag sabay-sabay ang mga kaso at may kanya-kanyang deadlines?

May mga nababasa rin kasi akong negative comments at experiences tungkol sa PAO, kaya curious ako sa perspective naman ng mga mismong nagtatrabaho roon.

Gusto ko lang maintindihan kung ano talaga ang kalagayan ng trabaho ninyo, paano ninyo hina-handle ang workload, at ano ang mga challenges na kinakaharap ninyo sa pagtulong sa mga taong nangangailangan ng legal assistance.

Would appreciate hearing your experiences and insights. Hindi ito para mang-judge, gusto ko lang maintindihan ang both sides. 🙂

AntiWORK Anyone here who resigned while pregnant? Need advice.

5 Upvotes

Just want to ask lang sana, meron ba here nag-resign during pregnancy? I’m currently 5 months pregnant, and during my 1st–4th month, I was advised by my OB to go on bed rest due to threatened miscarriage. I tried WFH at first, pero my symptoms made it really hard to work, so I decided to go on leave nalang.

I was actually up for promotion this year, kaso hindi nila ako prinomote because of the “timing” daw, and they’ll reconsider nalang after my maternity leave. Sobrang sama ng loob ko because after almost 4 years of hard work, parang na-disregard lahat ng efforts ko because of circumstances beyond my control.

I also noticed na parang nagkaroon ng hostility towards me yung manager ko while I was away. Like how she dismisses my condition and kahit naka leave ako, may demands parin of this and that, and todo micromanage, which btw hindi siya ganiyan sakin dati.

Now that I’m cleared to work, she mentioned during our alignment meeting na manageable naman daw yung workload and kaya naman nilang dalawa nung isa pang team member at di naman sila nahirapan kahit wala ako. Maybe it’s just how she delivered it, pero with everything that happened, parang ang dating sa akin is hindi na nila ako kailangan.

Honestly, I was already thinking of resigning even before getting married. I turned down other opportunities because I genuinely thought they would promote me, especially since they kept talking about my future in the company. Now, mas nagle-lean na ako towards resigning for my peace of mind and my baby.

My husband is also telling me to resign, pero I can’t help feeling guilty knowing how tired he gets from working and that I won’t be able to help as much for the meantime. I want to prioritize myself and my baby, pero I also want to help my husband.

For those who resigned while pregnant, how did you come to the decision to do so? Super hirap me mag decide now.

Kaya pa ba to tiisin/ilaban to stay or leave nalamg talaga for my well-being and health? Thank you!

Company alert 🚩 'Wag Kayong Mag-apply Dito

1 Upvotes

​If you know this NGO, they are very, yes VERY, loud sa ibang bansa about veganism and animal welfare.

​Nagtrabaho ako rito bilang assistant sa imbestigasyon under an Independent Contractor setup, and ito lang masasabi ko: 'WAG KAYONG MAG-APPLY DITO LALO NA SA INVESTIGATION DEPARTMENT.

​Ang daming red flags sa investigation department, lalo na yung manager doon na sobrang hirap kausap. Foreigner siya tapos grabe ang micromanaging like every hour need ng update. At kapag hindi ka agad nakapag-reply dahil busy ka sa mismong pinapagawa sa'yo o nasa field work ka, ipe-pressure ka niya at ikakwestyon ka pa niya nang super. Tapos yung output mo, lagi niyang kinakwestyon at sinasabing "kaya naman dapat ng 1 hour 'yan" kahit na sobrang dami nun at kailangang napakadetalyado ng report.

​Ang trabaho ko kasi rito ay mag-undercover sa mga lugar at negosyo na may kinalaman sa hayop gaya ng breeders, farms, slaughterhouses, kalesa, palengke, and so on. I used a hidden camera para mag-record ng field footage. After the investigation, I had to write all the details ng nakita ko without assumption since bawal 'yun—basta kung ano lang yung nakita mo at ng lente ng hidden cam. Hindi siya madali kasi kailangang very detailed and comprehensive, as in idedescribe mo yung mga taong nandun, yung sukat at itsura ng lugar, exact location, pati dimensions ng kulungan kung nakakulong ang hayop, kung anong meron sa loob ng cage, etc. They did this para daw makita kung may cruelty bang nangyayari at kung maayos ba ang welfare ng hayop.

Anyway, back to the manager, ​grabe ang micromanaging niya! Dapat update ka nang update sa ginagawa mo, tapos ipe-pressure ka pa sa mga gawaing hindi naman urgent. May time nga na nagbagsak sa akin ng napakaraming trabaho nung Biyernes ng hapon na, tapos kailangang maipasa agad ng Lunes ng umaga. WTF. Sobrang hirap niyang kausap and even ibang departments alam kung gaano siya kahirap makatrabaho at nabanggit din sa akin nung nakakwentuhan ko sila dati. Naalala ko rin nung pinipilit pa niya akong pumasok sa office nila mismo, since may office sila dito na naka-based, kahit wala naman silang mapoprovide na equipment for me doon. AFAIR, they know na I have no laptop and desktop ang meron ako since nasabi ko rin ito during interview. Nasabi niya rin na wala talagang mga equipment tong organization na to since nagdadala daw usually yung mga employee ng laptop (hello DOLE). At ito pa, 30 minutes lang ang break nila (hello again, DOLE).

​Malakas ang kutob ko na pinapalitan talaga nila ang mga tao sa role na ito every few months or every year. Malaman-laman ko, may opening na naman pala sila for an investigation role since last month. Feeling ko rin tactics nila ang magpalit-palit ng mga undercover para hindi makilala ang mukha ng tao kapag paulit-ulit na pumupunta sa same investigation areas. Nilalagay ka nila sa Independent Contractor setup para walang benefits, walang sick leave, at para sobrang dali ka nilang matanggal kapag ayaw na nila sa 'yo tsaka mas makakatipid yung kumpanya kasi wala silang sagot sa'yo.

​I hope makita ito ng mga prospective applicants at sana hindi niyo maranasan ang lahat ng naranasan ko rito. Kung ako sa inyo, please wag niyo nang ituloy. Gagamitin lang kayo at the end.

Hello, I was terminated because someone reported that I watched video that causes traffic to bandwidth but they don't have evidence.

I tried to explain that I only watched video playback or it's like a GIF when you open the Microsoft Edge Browser but I don't click any website but the Employer still proceed the termination.

How should I explain this when applying other company?

I was rejected everytime (just like the picture) when I applied and that is one of their reason.

Please help me.
