Management seemed to need a Great Place To Work survey to tell them something the rest of us knew already. All they seem to want to do about it though is implement a few quick fixes so we can pass the survey threshold next time around and put the logo on the company website. I’d rather they’d face up to the fundamental issues with the company culture, commit to changing it and say it takes as long as it takes to fix it. That would need someone in the “leadership team” to demonstrate some actual leadership ability though, so I’m not going to hold my breath while waiting for this to happen.

Yes Franz there were two who warned me but I was thinking of the other. You also deserve credit.
You do not need to leave your office. Remain sitting at your desk and listen. Do not even listen, simply wait, be quiet, still and solitary. CGG will freely offer itself to you to be unmasked, it has no choice, it will roll in ecstasy at your feet
As a general rule, it is harder to find a great place to work in a bad industry than a good one. Even so, in a company in a bad industry there are good pockets amongst mostly bad ones. I worked in a good one at your illustrious company, but have been told that even it has turned bad, and good ones are hard to find. I remember when an old friend career Shell told me that geophysics was a dieing industry, I didn’t believe it. Guess what?
Management are clueless. But unions are not far behind.
The fact that the person in charge of UK gender pay gap is male and based in France speaks volumes. Shows management is not taking this legislation seriously.
Where was the survey done?
