Good intent but bad implementation. Leadership completely out of touch

Pros

Good team, highly skilled, good vibe. Very sexy and exciting work.

Cons

Lack of long-term vision; everything is improvised. Three RIFs in less than 12 months, and every time it's the same story from executives, telling us they feel good about how we are well-positioned now with the recent cuts.

Advice to Management

Go get educated on the Kubler-Ross change curve so that you get everyone buying into your proposed changes instead of five executives defending their points in front of 7,000 people upset about the RTO policy. Walk the talk when it comes to empathy, and don't clean just the lower levels. What brought us here isn't what is going to keep us here, and that should also apply to all the layers of VPs. All these improvised RIFs are eroding the company's culture.
