The leadership team promotes a compelling brand narrative.
Cons
Senior decision-makers frequently changed direction, often reversing priorities mid-project. Creative initiatives were approved, paused, then reshaped without explanation. This pattern signaled uncertainty at the leadership level and made long-term planning nearly impossible. Work felt disposable because of leadership's commitment to its own decisions.
The only positive was that the internal communication platform worked smoothly, even if the communication itself didn't.
Cons
The most frustrating aspect was how little alignment existed between departments. Decisions were made without notifying the people affected, updates were withheld until problems surfaced, and projects stalled because no one had the same information. Instead of building a cohesive team, leadership allowed fragmented communication to slow everything down. This lack of unity left employees fixing confusion that could've been prevented with basic organization.
