Pros

Wonderful people up until the upper management position.

Cons
  • Leadership is absolutely tone-deaf and lacks true empathy.
  • Constant change in priorities.
  • Unclear direction from leadership.
  • Removed maybe the only positive portion of the benefits (every other Friday off).
Advice to Management

Stop blaming and start taking ownership for the failures the company is having. C-Suites and leadership constantly look to point fingers instead of looking to improve and create a blameless culture. Leads to ICs looking to save their butt instead doing the right thing.

Maybe look to why there's been so much attrition lately and look to keep your talent instead of "There are plenty of folks who want to join" mindset instead. We were different from an Amazon mentality, but I guess now we're not and the compensation is nowhere close.
