Iterating on Mediocrity
Very cushy environment. Basically unlimited vacation time with the way "working from home" is treated. No real pressure to deliver anything.
There is no concept of failure.
No ability to take risks.
An ancient tech stack and lack of talent drives any high-talent new hires to leave within one year.
Fire one-third of the company and start anew. Far too much deadwood. Also, be less concerned with managing legacy customers as you are with capturing new customers and markets.
