In my company,junior employees often work more than 60 hours a week. If the boss is in the office,we feel we have to stay until he leaves. Very often,we are not paid for working overtime,we work for free. And for many us,the summer holiday is only a one-week vacation. We work a lot of overtime, but we aren't more productive. We just have more health problems.
There is so much waste in our company! The air conditioning is on, and people open the windows. The cafeteria is empty, but all the lights are on. People photocopy everything,and the wastepaper basket are full of copies nobody wants. It's a waste of money for the company, and it's bad for the environment. We all need to try and do our bit to protect our environment.
Our company changes all the time, and every month some employees lost their jobs. We are very worried about losing our jobs. It's very stressful. We love our company,but sometimes we lose our motivation. We don't come to work on time,or we leave early. We are not very happy at work,and not very happy at home. It's a difficult situation for our families,too.
Things are better now than in the past, but many of my female colleagues aren't happy. There often get less money than men for the same work, and it's more difficult for us women to get a promotion. In addition,working in teams is very difficult. We women can express our opinions,of course, but it's almost always the manager who has the final word and makes the decisions.
