Highly political, toxic culture, lack of vision in leadership
Highly political, toxic culture, lack of vision in leadership
- Many lateral opportunities in different areas, so long your manager approves.
- Flexibility in work location/environment.
- No presentations.
- Low base pay, high turnover due to stock cliff.
- Lack of vision from L6/7 level managers and L8 directors.
- Toxic work culture at all levels.
- Unfair URA targets, a common practice to PIP based on leadership principles and not based on project results.
- Delusional writing principles for white papers.
Set a vision for all levels. Hire people with detailed job descriptions, not just to hire so you can be a manager. Have a career development plan for employees. Be fair and just.
