The micromanaging is obviously a problem. I can see a person who is new try to really jump in to try to get a sense of everything and everyone in the organization and then pull back later when they start to trust people, but trying to edit documents for hundreds of people is nuts. I can't imagine the documents would need substantive edits by the time they get to the director.

No, it is not part of the work day. Our org has flexible hours. People come in as early as 6 AM to start work so they they can finish early and take care of their families. It causes huge strain on their familial obligations if a meeting gets changed in less than 24 hours for late in the day past 4 PM so that the terrible director can attend a meeting 5 levels below her 15 minutes late.

That goodness you dont deal with any outside vendors or clients since you all can make up your own work hours. How blessed.

Hope your group is pulling in industry margins or better.

Thank God we don't work in your sh!tty industry.

Lol, it happened again this week. Meeting got changed at the last minute for 4-5PM. Someone got into a car accident with their kids because they had to go pick them up and were trying to manage a crazy stupid meeting at the last minute.

You also miss the major point. The reason meetings are being pushed so late is so that someone way high up can attend meetings and discussions for front line work 5 levels below her. It's insane micromanagement. She could I dunno, not attend the meetings because she trusts the employees hired and their managers above them rather than try to do all of the front line work herself? Crazy thought, I know!

Sounds like a clown show over there.

People leaving the office at 3pm to race around and pick up kids and driving them in circles for hours and hours.

Hire a nanny or college kid to drive that stuff. Yesterday. Get childcare if both work and you have kids age 0-16 and you’re too lazy to set up car pools with others’ Nannie’s.

Work office hours exist for exactly the reason YOU brought up - communication, reachability, and team work at the offices

Shocking news flash!!

Who tf has Nannie’s and personal drivers?


Newsflash dimwit: not everyone is rich. Shocking you can understand that and the concept of core office hours written into policy.

She doesn’t. You should be concerned that you and your peers are not capable of doing the work and now a senior level person has to get involved. That doesn’t bode well for your future employment.

lol.


You sound like a horrific manager. Bet every single one of your employees hates you and your micromanaging style. How could 800 employees possibly be incapable of doing the work?

You tell me. You’re one of the 800 not performing well so now someone has to review your work and join your team meeting.

Yes, 800 employees not performing well all at the same time.


You are absolutely clueless. How can it possibly be terrible leader at the helm? Clearly 800 people must be bad at their job.


You sound like a horrific boss.

You can keep repeating I’m a terrible boss but I’m not the poor performer that is now being micromanaged. Maybe spend more time on improving your performance at work instead of complaining here.
