#accounting

The irony of the CHK accounting department at their holiday party watching a movie where the boss cuts out the Christmas bonuses in order to benefit the bottom line...

At least in the movie they make it right when they realize how it affects morale.

I work in the accounting department in the Sarasota FL office.

It seems that the "rules" for us requesting vacation time is very different from everybody else's. The "rules" are strict, with a short timeline and are subject to supervisors approval- which really means that her manager "the Wicked Witch of Blythewood will say NO.

Forget filing a complaint against Cindy. People have been fired or forced to quit because of her. Feeling so helpless. Retaliation? You bet. I now work hard to keep my mouth shut for fear I will be the next target. Working hard on finding another job as is everyone else in our department.

Too bad that they don't care that they are losing such good people. We stayed even with no raises for the last five years. Now you take away our vacations. Can't wait to see what the 2017 medical benefits will be like....

That is... if I survive the wrath of Cindy...

Found this on :@JV85JO8-wdm Thought it deserved a new thread.

Seems as if some things never change.

Why would she leave?? 1. Cant keep cutting your way to a bonus after 2 years, needs sales growth which of course there is none. 2. Significant compensation tied to bonus and stock which is financial results based. 3. Stay too long you are associated as a leader of a loser organization. Leave on your best year. 4. Industry is dying and no way to reverse it. Every business initiative and project was a failure. 5. IT failures continue under her watch, even accelerated. Outsourcing failed because systems are way more custom and poorer than originally thought. Good IT talent left, bad IT talent stayed and Infosys and TCS were tremendous disappointments - can't code hello world. 6. CIO SS was her pick and he royally messed up IT and it will not recover. 8. IP department and experience destroyed, accounting department destroyed, store personnel destroyed. 9. KFarts/Sears/Office Depot/Max have taken over and wielding their magic that ruined their previous companies and 10. MLS was bright, talented and a go getter and there are much better opportunities in a growing company/industry for her skills - just watch.

Clearly not in accounting department, and make me glad I left people like you behind. Enjoy your bonus , I get multiplier matching and a pension at my new place cheers.

Rob, since your 1st post I have done a little digging. It turns out that CHK doesn't even have an accounting department! They grew soo quickly they just forgot to create one! Imagine that!!

I work in the accounting department and rarely does any new application work as designed. Instead we spend months cleaning up issues. Look at Hyperion, what a giant waste of millions of dollars, it should be scrapped.

I highly doubt the SD employees are looking to leave.. they are too retarded to know that they work for a terrible company. The accounting department gets paid shit, and they have been with the company longer than any other department. They are possibly the laziest and stupidest people I have ever come across. The real estate department could never get another job like that in SD, so they are staying. I can see the SF employees leaving because there are tons of jobs and opportunities for them in SF. In SD, these people enjoy being abused.

Accounting department is the worst I've seen. Changes should've been made a long time ago.

Someone in the accounting department approached me about signing a letter they are sending to Advent over concerns the accounting department has. I declined, but it was not a pretty letter. Its getting real ugly.
