It's Day 2
It's Day 2
There are many good things about a company this large: lots of opportunities, lots of impact, and lots of support.
As the company has grown into a behemoth, it is struggling to maintain any part of its Day 1 motto.
Things throughout the company are buried in process and political turf wars.
Separately, the compensation philosophy is simply stupid: there is no real connection between performance and compensation (it's overwhelmed by the stock price fluctuations).
Stop with the casino/game show-based comp philosophy. Pay people money.
