What the hell does mandatory overtime mean. That’s just your regular hours then. Is it a way to make your salary look better as it’s for the hours you’re supposedly working?
It’s saying that management is incapable of properly judging their staffing needs versus their production numbers, but doesn’t want to risk having anyone not working at 100% all the time because that would mean they’re not “getting their moneys worth” out of each worker.
Usually it will happen consistently at certain times of the year, in a predictable fashion.
It’s a culture problem. My job has mandatory overtime. They say “if you don’t like it, you can find another place to work.”
But… every place in my field will say that. So I don’t really have an option, do I?
