We’re staffed for busy periods, and probably overstaffed this year due to a lack of business for obvious reasons. I understand the importance of occasionally reinforcing working standards, but cracking down on not looking busy creates an incentive to work slower. If KPIs are enforced to prevent that, then you’ll have a lot more dead time.

It’s a small company and I know my managers are likely trying to avoid hour cutting, furloughs, or layoffs, but we have an egregiously unproductive employee or two that haven’t been let go despite a dozen write-ups at this point. Mixed messages compounding the issue since we’re less busy between us by sharing the workload and all getting put on notice for their behavior.

I’m just venting. This is really the only negative about the place, and it’s been pretty fair and relaxed otherwise.
