Something fishy is going on in Pacific. Ever since the announcement of Steve Castledine’s departure (GM) and the “has been olympians” takeover, they’re dropping like flies. Unethical and baseless dismissals, strategical push outs - the list goes on. The whole cluster is an absolute f*cking shambles, beyond repair.
Pacific will NEVER adapt to global protocols and procedures - they are too used to getting their own way.
The HR team is the worst of the pack. They continue to fail at the most basic hiring/firing procedures . Instances of accidentally offering successful candidates salaries/relocation packages beyond their banding, one talent acquisition member took off on non-approved/non communicated leave for 3 weeks and went AWOL - completely uncontactable. The same person also completely abandoned the hiring process and framework for the WHOLE of Pacific during the summer casual hiring period, ultimately requiring a colleague from Dubai to be flown over on an STA to sort out the sht show. The aforementioned TA manager then returned and resigned but was later asked by the former Snr HR Director (good riddance) to stay on an additional month. She then created more fckery than she was worth and was asked to leave without completing the additional month of service.
I could divulge more and more and more but that would require too much energy being wasted.
In summary, everyone is out for blood in this market and I can only see the new leader (for lack of a better term) sticking it in the blender for another round of sh*t flinging.
