Have you ever worked somewhere with a point system?
I've worked in two places that have used them as a way to enforce attendance policies, etc. The worst of it though was working for a nationally recognized nonprofit (you've definitely heard of it). Points up to a 100 followed by termination. Points if you were late. Scheduled bathroom/lunch breaks. Points if you weren't back on time from said breaks. Points if you called out. Points if you needed to leave early to pick up your sick kid from school. Points they mandated you to work and you couldn't. Points if there was a blizzard and you couldn't make it in.The list goes on. It was absolutely the most punitive policy I've ever worked under and people were miserable. I managed to go a year without any points, but eventually needed to just move on. This doesn't even take into account the ridiculous reasons people were asked to leave outside of the point system. Mind you, this was an organization that is very well known for the work it does to help people in almost every state in the country with hundred of regional offices.
The second place I worked with a point system did so only with certain employees and it didn't affect my position whatsoever.
Anybody ever experience this?
