Top-tier compensation but poor leadership and feedback issues
Top-tier compensation but poor leadership and feedback issues
Compensation is top-tier for the LA area, and the company has many very talented engineers.
Leadership leaves a lot to be desired. They cannot plan and set yearly or quarterly priorities and choose to instead question their own choices and constantly make changes and move folks around.
They claim they welcome candid feedback but often fire folks who disagree with leadership. The CTO is specially prone to cutting folks who disagree or criticize any of his initiatives. Dissent is not welcome and leadership refuses to share feedback they've received.
Yearly reviews are non-existent and there is no feedback cycle or clear path to promotions.
Find a CTO who better understands AI and that can drive a culture of candid feedback.
