ACME WORKPLACE EVALUATION Prepared for Professor Margaret Murphy Prepared by Michael Titus Date Prepared: March 19, 2011 Executive Summary Acme Workplace Evaluation This report is a workplace evaluation on Acme Corporation Support Services department Rochester division. The evaluation discusses the details of how within the last three years Acme Support Services department has gone from a desired place to work to a place where workers are looking for other employment opportunities due to cuts in training, and a disconnect with upper and middle management. The report used three sources to support the findings of this evaluation. First was a 45-minute interview with one of my co-workers at Acme, Michael Walton, second was my personal observation of the work area, and third was a document analysis of an inter office memo that showed how managements use of management through fear, creating a hostile work environment. The information from these three sources provide information on why workers at Acme Support Services department morale has been getting lower and lower. The main topic of discussion is the disconnect between management and workers. The workplace document illustrates this disconnect very well. The interview with Mike Walton relays this point when he speaks of the frustration of management not practicing they would ask of there workers. The copy of the memo concerning management’s desire to have workers take more calls per hour, with a take more calls or else tone in the memo. Based on what I observe everyday at this establishment it very hard to recommend employment at Acme at this time point and time. Unless there is a shake up with management I cannot see this situation turning it’s self around in the near or distance future. Table of Contents Executive Summary I. Introduction II. Sources and Methods III.
