I concur. Terrible one at that. Can betray you for just 20naira and to be relevant, wit all manner of eyes service.

What would they do?

Ask British American Tobacco Nig what Federal Consumer Protection Council did to them.

You're are the slave master to your own body.
You found yourself in a job as terrible as you described above, why not quit

Kingdemu:

Dear Demu,
Kindly be informed that there are government agencies that have institutionalized corruption, it worthy to note that there are companies in Nigeria that do not pay any taxes.

I have worked in the media and I know how this things work.

The name of this hotel at Lekki axis precisely Maroko by sand field is called LAGOS ORIENTAL HOTEL, this hotel is an eye sore.

If there's other names for slavery it's there at oriental hotel, where staff sleep on bathroom floor without permission to do so, if u're caught is an option of sack or deduction or both penalties.

It's a place where u're not allowed to dress corporately or be seen eloquently inclined.

People are treated like second class citizens because the German, who happens to be the General Manager, is a racist who dislike Nigerians with passion. He finds and hold on u at any means possible offence upon which deduction earmarked from staff service charge or salary.

This exercise is necessary by all means because Peter must be robbed to pay Paul. Meaning, deductions of other staffs are used to scale up staff payment while hundreds of millions of naira weekly earmark are shared between the class struggles.

There's a man called Taiwo Ali, from Ijebu whose late father relationship with the Chinese owners dated early 1950s, he is the African Director of the wemco group of companies.

This man, is the offspring of his late father and the staff nightmare of the hotel. When the Chinese, considered reasonable payment as take home for staff, his father vehemently rejected and instead used cassava flakes as justification for surplus in the salary scheme an action which had ever since placed staff under an eternal penury.

Salary is range between 16k, 18k and 25k while older staff with long service receive 28k monthly. Service charge is the lowest in the entire axis but the highest sale statistics in the Lekki axis.

The GM has a dog who sleeps a full room apartment with all necessary applicable to guest in the hotel. This dog eats full chicken and everything as demanded while staff who are mostly Nigerians or other Africans eat foods meant for second class citizens because the GM at one time remarked tha his dog couldn't eat the particular food but unfortunately this is the food we eat.

My fellow Nigerians, we're nothing less than a slave in this country by our own people in collaboration with their white counterparts

You can get sack for a minor offense, it doesn't matter how long u have been in service for the hotel. Many of colleagues, I met whom I witnessed been sack some have been in service for more than 10yrs but were sent packing without any renumeration for service.

We hope, someday, someone will look into the slavery our leaders have sold us into in this country.

This is my eyewitness account of oriental hotel located at no 3, Victoria island, Lekki, Lagos.

I don't know it it's juju they used to tie you guys there. Even if you're treated like a prince or princess, how can you accept a job of less than 30K per month? Iya Ramota selling tomatoes and pepper will earn more than that in a week.

Since the said work is not by force, I see no reason why you are here complaining. Leave their job, look elsewhere for a better offer. This is where our over smartness has led us as a country. When everyone is trying to be smarter than the rest.

Other Nigerians like you and I, were lucky to be in a good company where they are respected, enjoy good pay and good benefits, but what did their employers get in return? They ruined the company by stealing the company's money and other bad acts that crumbled many businesses.

So enjoy your 30K per month job.

See my brother ehn.. God go deh bless you

You may not see the stupidity and selfishness in your post but I'll open your eyes to it.

You don't have to be the first victim of unfair system before you raise awareness against it and expose such ills.

Just because you are fortunate enough to get a job better job than the op doesn't mean you won't be a victim of a bad system in the near future.

In the hospitality industry, staff salaries are subjected to deductions which are "criminal " and has no legal backing.

You will understand when you start your own business
Bro ,The only reason your business can succeed in Nigeria is when you treat them like this dont pity them wicked set of workers . If you treat them well thy will ruin your establishment and move to the next .

There are a lot of threads on Nairaland where people drop reviews of where they work/worked.
They drop how much the companies pay their staff.

Before you go for an interview, don't you google about the company?



Please, just get off my mention!

I just checked out the reviews. It's indeed a terrible hotel. Definitely a poorly managed hotel. That German manager and the Nigerian counterpart are doing a bad job.

What am i reading 16, 28k as salaries?

Ayrastarr:

This is pure lies.
List the oil companies.

Exactly.

Pussyisgud:


Exactly.

In Lekki, some cleaners are being paid 35k

The only good thing Is that they run shift.

So you can get two shift jobs .

Ayrastarr:

Exactly, office cleaning pays 35k for a Monday - Friday job, while hotel /lounge /bar hospitality cleaning can be doing shifts but the problem here is that they would not allow you to work double shifts and earn double salary in the same hotel, if you decide to be working double jobs at two a separate hotels (morning and night shifts) how are you gonna meet up with arriving on early for both jobs and also you will not be sleeping at night or day coz u will be at work and automatically no holidays or off days for you.
In order words you will neglect yourself start looking like zombie to the extent that small time YOU WILL JUST DIE.

Keep dreaming, or maybe u never ready to work cos all my life i have never seen any company that pays cleaner 60k.

Cleaners in my work place earn a little above 200k.

This mentality must stop. It is this kind of thinking that makes you a slave in your country. Why would you leave a job in your own country just because you are being treated like a slave The right thing to do is to report the company and call them out. This is what Nigerian youths are supposed to be carrying placard and protest for. Not mohbad’s death!!!

Pussyisgud:
Oriental hotel i have worked there before, indeed staffs are treated like slaves and anytime the manager is around na serious tension and pressure untop peanut salary as a security guard, that place is very terrible and not a good place to work in at all. Lots of eye service intimidation and all shouting and cursing
They prepare the yeye food they gave us separately one little plate of food once daily
I had to resign omo work bokku for outside.

SO WHAT IS ORIENTAL ABOUT THEIR HOTEL,IF THEY LOOK BIG FROM OUTSIDE AND BEHAVE SMALL TOWARDS STAFF WELFARE INSIDE. black man is wicked, thank GOD the internet is not owned by one stupid black man, he would have monopolized it for self greed.
