"management does not respect the worker, even workers who should be entrusted with great responsibility. middle management is afraid of upper management and will not stand up for the actual workers. management forgets that they are there to facilitate work, not micromanage. creating a cheaper product comes at the expense of quality and customer service. The job descriptions are subject to change without notice or proper hearing. If you don't agree with management, too bad, it's going to happen."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"remember what you used to do when you did real work, don't forget where you came from. diversity of opinion is what creates excellence and ideas. squelching dissenting opinions is not productive. use the strengths of the employees, do not try to squeeze everyone into an unreasonable ideal, but rather use the individual strengths of the resources you have.Companies rise and fall based on customer satisfaction which can be gained through either creating a better product, a better service, or a cheaper price. you can not offer a lesser product, the same price and less service and simultaneously create increased customer satisfaction."
