I didn’t put my full real title as I’m worried since I’m still an employed here. What I will say is that this is the most toxic company I’ve ever worked at. I’m lucky that my team is good - but we all have anxiety of having to interact with Johnny.
The reason why is because Johnny is a ruthless leader that has no class. He lives in a bubble, was likely raised in a bubble, and has no idea how to connect with people or encourage them to grow. He consistently berates people and makes them feel bad. Everyone is too scared of him to stand up to him because he just fires people who he doesn’t like.
It’s really such a sad classic CEO whose ego is so big and where nothing will change him form behind better.
My advice - don’t like the top pay tempt you. Really - go somewhere else. Long term your overall health will be better than having to work here.
Johnny will randomly slack us on weekends and late at night with questions on slack with a sense of urgency. There is no work life balance here.
Priorities are constantly changing. Product team is a mess - none of them taking ownership over their products and constantly passing the blame to other teams. Everyone is overworked and over stressed.
