Great Culture, But Indecisive Leadership
Great Culture, But Indecisive Leadership
Company culture, mission, offices, and product pipeline are great.
Very passionate and capable people are commonly found across all teams.
The constant pressure from the stock affects long-term deductions.
Leadership is very indecisive and is constantly changing directions. There's a lot of exploration and throw-away work.
Flexibility is great, and the ability to pivot on a dime is great. But if not done on time, the workforce gets burned out from lack of deduction making and constant direction change.
