Going backwards fast
Company outlook seems favorable, and there are lots of smart people on the R&D teams.
The CEO is totally out of touch, and the rest of the leadership team can't reign him in. Employee satisfaction is not a priority. There are lots of unpopular decisions piled on top of each other (nerfing fringe benefits, return to office, layoffs, raises that don't keep up with inflation) with no attempt to make employees feel good. They just don't care about morale or the people, and they expect everyone to care about the mission of making those annoying marketing emails the world hates.
