Very, Very Driven
Very, Very Driven
This is the place where employees can make things happen and affect outcomes. The culture allows you to [act/operate] as high as required to solve your problems, as long as you have data.
Most of the work is highly critical, and VP-level visibility is common.
It is a very Darwinian workplace. There is constant change and resetting of direction to the extent that real progress is slowed down. Everybody is always in "every man for himself" fight mode. You need to develop a militant mindset to thrive here.
Add collaboration to your leadership principles – you are not getting to your destination alone.
