Pros

The job is well paid. Salaries are above the market.

Cons

Business leaders seem lost on what should be built next. Priorities change, and communication is poor.

Deadlines change constantly, and very often, things have to be done yesterday. Due to this constant change, communication and a lack of transparency have always been a problem.

Additionally, management sells the company internally as if there is no better place in the world to be, and as if there aren't problems. The words "awesome" and "incredible," continuously used to describe the company, are so overused by them that I don't know anymore what is really awesome. What is worse, this behavior really underestimates the problems at hand.

Advice to Management

It is okay to try and sell a positive image, and that is encouraged. It is not okay to oversell it. Too much of it creates fatigue and stress, and gives the wrong impression that one should always be thankful to be part of it.

A company also has ups and downs. Only by acknowledging the problems will people feel encouraged to share their worries.

The company really needs to stand by its transparency and empathy values. Right now, those seem to be missing the most.
