If a company tells you 'we are one big happy family', trust me when I say run. They are the ones that will owe salary but order pizza for everyone in the office. They won't enrol you on NHIS but will dash you 5k when you are sick

Fly you out to events and pay for hotel, meanwhile your salary is 50k without pension and healthcare. Occasionally boss will dash you 10k for the weekend cos you are broke, even though he/she is the reason why you are broke. Run away from them

Someone should build a portal where people narrate their work experiences in this Lagos, so when you have an offer you go and search the company before you enter one chance

Nairaland used to be good for this but the UX/UI gives me a headache and the most vile people are there

You know the worst part? They make you people struggle for the scraps they dish out, this even creates more toxicity in the office because everyone wants to be in the good books of the boss so they can get 10k every now and then. So yea the staff end up hating each other even

People start snitching on one another so they can be the beloved of the boss and by so doing be positioned to receive the next set of scraps from the masters table, meanwhile nobody remembers that salary is an apology and there are no benefits.

This is probably my privilege speaking but I dare say unemployment is better than some jobs because you will be in debt, your self esteem destroyed, you will have anxiety always and see finish will follow you cos you are always asking people for money even though you work.

People will save your number as Ifeoma begi begi because you are constantly late on your Bills and you have to borrow always cos you never know when your salary will be paid! Oyigiyigi save your children from these sharks

And these are the companies that will squeeze blood out of you, you will bend over backwards till you snap into two
