Low bar leadership and without a clear, compelling strategy. They will ask almost hilariously unrealistic things of you without any conditions for success. Lots of redundancies delivered without feeling and thought at Christmas, no enterprise wide thinking and those with roles that are there to drive change are eaten alive and scapegoated. It’s amazing how huge investments gone wrong are swept under the carpet when the points of failure need real inspection. Leaders who smile and nod and join in the bizarre corporate gaslighting (vs reality) are more praised than those who actually deliver meaningful work.
There is a very apparent and unaddressed boys club (and that’s coming from male employee). The reward system is a soul destroying mess and the whole company talks about it. These 5 star reviews I’ve just read are clearly written by HR. I’m astonished to read them as they do not correlate to the company I know and I know that my peers see.
