So I admit I might sound like a whiny millennial here. Apparently, the CEO has complained about a number of people including me being on social media at work.
Here's my problem:
1) I feel like he's spying on his employees
2) He just generally comes off as an ******* to me, calling people out (albeit not by name) that are on performance improvement during town hall meetings.
3) 1 + 2 makes sours me on the company though I generally really like my coworkers.
4) I'm pretty sure this is common at most, if not all companies.
5) I get my work done and I'm usually busy though lately, I've had downtime. His assumption that people that are on social media sites don't have work is false.
6) It just comes off as petty, we're not robots sometimes to optimize the effectiveness of employees a break is necessary. Doesn't mean you have to spend half the day on personal sites, but if you take a quick break is it that big of a deal? I think breaks generally improve productivity.
7) I'm already paid like at best an entry-level employee despite 7 or 8 years of work experience and an MBA from a good school.
