Manager, Energy Storage Systems
Not many recently. Maybe good upside from a stock perspective, given the low stock price.
Where do I begin?
Incompetent middle/upper management and executive team. Poor long-term incentives. Terrible culture within and between teams. No exemplification of the touted culture by executives. Promises made by the leadership team that are reversed quickly or before those promises were ever even attempted. Inefficiencies all over the place with no action from leadership to fix them.
Amazing policies to claw back cash spent, like eliminating cups in the coffee rooms and keeping travel per diem below federal rates, while continuing to blow crazy amounts on travel and expedite fees to meet timelines that are a joke.
The list goes on… what was once a fun, promising, innovative place to work has become a prison.
Listen to your employees when they say they need people and resources to make your ridiculous timing plans. Or when they explain where processes and collaborations are broken.
