Leadership destroying a once great company
Leadership destroying a once great company
Some of the talent at the Junior and middle layers are really smart and enthusiastic. The culture over the years has been great and a fun place to work. Breakfast everyday and good benefits. Pay is good, but it might change now that the company is going private.
The leadership is toxic and incompetent. The leaders seem to be guided by motives that do not align with the goals of the company.
There is a lot of nepotism at the director level and above. The so-called manager forum, which is claimed as the solution for improving leadership, is a running joke.
When the problem is the people at the very top, there only seems one way the company is going. A lot of good talent was recently let go, and a lot of other good engineers will leave once their bonuses are paid out in a couple of months.
This management is either incompetent or grossly negligent, neither of which can be fixed easily.
