Looks good on the outside, but not the inside
Great people to work with, and within some teams.
Culture feels forced. Lack of directional leadership. They have a vision but struggle to communicate it from the top to the bottom. Leadership is very good at gaslighting employees during feedback. Exhibit A: They say they take the feedback survey seriously but never truly address the concerns from it. That is gaslighting. Stop forcing people back to the office for three days when they do not want to.
Learn to listen! Like truly pay attention. You are losing your best people and will struggle to get the best talent to help deliver your vision.
Learn how to communicate in a manner that can carry everyone along on a journey where people are excited to work and be truly rewarded for it.
Stop the BS culture of the boys' club upstairs. We know; we are not fools, so please do not insult our intelligence.
