Video: Synergy at Work 2024, July
Since 1988, the Synergy business school in Moscow and a number of other Russian cities has provided an opportunity for everyone to get an education and improve their skills. Online courses, workshops, seminars and trainings, corporate programs, forums and conferences. Education today adapts itself to you and your requirements. This is the view from the student. And what does the wrong side of this institution look like when you are going to start your career there? Will you find yourself in a friendly team, sipping tea at lunchtime and discussing personal life, or will you meet stern competitors who will set up the bandwagon at any time?
Who to go to work
From the statements of the company it follows that they do not limit the professionalism of applicants to the job scope, therefore, a resume can be sent for a number of vacancies.
Apparently, for the same reason, there is no specifics, like the level of wages (that almost everyone looks first and only then the conditions and responsibilities), a detailed description of the workplace and process, schedule, and the like. The open vacancies of the Synergy business school cover a wide range of applicants: whether it is a student at the beginning of his career or an experienced leader.
Vague working conditions: a little thought
On the one hand, this option of hiring future employees will attract the attention of doubters or unsure of the strengths and capabilities of applicants. On the other hand, you can miss out on professionals looking for specifics.
One more assumption can be made on this approach: the company has a strong turnover (which is confirmed by the studied reviews of the Synergy business school).
In any case, you should not judge the correctness of the publication of vacancies, so there will be room for personal conclusions.
Two in one
There are two possible options for considering a company: Synergy is a university and a business school. The differences are simple: study for the sake of higher education or in one lesson get acquainted with the desired speaker.
There is an opportunity to pull up your skills in a specific direction, and if you want to get a state diploma of higher education, including with a degree.
It is worth noting that this approach to training options is very good. And since employees are provided with knowledge up to free, this is a huge plus in addition to work and wages.
Is it worth sharing your opinion on your resource?
Do you trust reviews posted by companies on their own sites? Although no, it’s better to start with another question. Have you ever seen a negative review on a page of a company or organization? It is doubtful that someone would sincerely want to flaunt negative opinions about themselves or their services. Usually only praising odes are published (it is the wild enthusiasm for everyone and everything).
The university and the Synergy business school have not spared such a marketing move. Reviews of employees, guests of events, students are collected in the form of video files. CEOs and company representatives summarize the valuable experience gained. A large number of reviews of business training at Synergy, about faculties at the university.
What really stands out in a winning light is the ability to view opinions in video format, and not just to get acquainted with them in a text version. Such a move attracts attention.
How can you relate to other people's reviews on the Internet
The Internet is a place where you can find almost anything. It is possible to advertise the worst product or destroy the reputation of even the most honest company.
Therefore, today it is better to be skeptical of reviews on the Internet.
Firstly, it’s not a secret for anyone that reviews are paid, they are written to order. In them you are unlikely to find words of truth.
Secondly, there are former offended employees who want to take out all their negativity on the pages of sites. Such an attitude may be biased enough.
So, reading reviews of the Synergy business school, you will never guess where the lie is and where the truth is.
Where you can watch independent recommendations
If you do not take your own sites of companies, that is, a wide variety of third-party resources for publishing reviews. It concerns almost everything: the service sector, shops, goods, and personalities.
Such sources are considered independent and the most truthful. Anyone who wants to register, write a personal opinion and rate it.
Sweet words of thanks
Any person will be pleased to hear a good opinion of themselves. When it comes to a company or organization, it’s doubly nice.
Among the reviews about the business school "Synergy" quite often there are full, detailed reviews about the positive aspects of working for this company.
In sufficient detail, employees express an opinion on the pluses of the Synergy business school. Reviews left on third-party sites relate to:
- friendly staff;
- timely wages;
- receiving education in addition to work;
- comfortable cozy workplaces;
- career growth, etc.
To such an opinion did not seem like a continuous fairy tale, small minuses are noted. For example, you need to work hard and work hard to earn good money. But this accompanies any work in any company, so that is not surprising.
Fly in the ointment that draws attention
People will always find the good, but they usually try to keep silent about the bad.
After all, when you come to get a new job in an unfamiliar team and with a new leadership, you usually listen to what is being said about the conditions. But not always the words at the interviews correspond to reality. It’s rarely explained to you about the pitfalls of future work or competing employees. Yes, there have not yet been interviews where they say:
“But don't tell Aunt Luce about your personal life.” She did not ask, so she spreads rumors about others. Everyone understands, but then try to convince that everything is in order with you.
Or, for example, like this:
- I, as your future leader, will flood you with work that will have to stay on the weekend. Want to prove yourself - forget about the family, live at work.
Of course, no one makes such sincere speeches. So, enough to read the negative reviews of employees about the business school "Synergy".
They are missing too. But again, it is worth repeating, this can be a real reflection of reality, the machinations of competitors to defeat the reputation, or the elementary frustration of the offended dismissed employees.
Criticism concerns many aspects of working conditions: problems with wages, work schedules, colleagues or management. So to speak, for every taste and color.
Arguably and possibly truthfully
Most noteworthy negative reviews are reviews that are written without emotion, based on arguments and facts. Logically, it is precisely such opinions of employees that most attract attention and are trustworthy.
So, for example, in the photo below you can highlight several key points of the author:
- staff turnover;
- high prices for training services;
- ROSSTAT data.
If it is impossible to track the quick change of the working staff without working in the company, then the second two points can be checked in a short time. Prices for training services can be compared by choosing a specific position.
It’s hard to say something about the financial well-being of the company. Long and hard crawling along the wilds of the website of the Federal State Statistics Service, and again, and again … Maybe someone will personally manage to find such information. Confirm or refute failed, and it happens.
And finally, not in the forehead, but in the eye
Independent reviews of writing reviews about the Synergy business school, both negative and positive. Yes, there is such a site where you can find out a little truth. It’s more correct to say the summary of the authors of the reviews: people write, write, believing that no one will know anything. And here again - and they find out that all the reviews were written from one place. Or, for example, a bunch of negative reviews about the Moscow bakery published from Norway. You can immediately understand that these are the machinations of harmful people (in any case, everyone understood who they were talking about).
So, with regard to reviews of the business school "Synergy", the photograph shows the following marks:
- suspiciously a lot of reviews with ip-addresses of other states,
- suspiciously many reviews with the same ip-addresses,
- suspiciously many reviews from one browser.
Accidental coincidence or tricks of the advertising department? Only the words from the song come to mind: think for yourself, decide for yourself. In the case of the Synergy school, decide what to believe, what to choose.
