-100% profit driven company, pretending to be mission driven.
-Always blinded by winning the short-term, no emphasis on long-term or real impact.
-Bullying management culture. Leaders who try to use a different approach from the toxic CEO burn out, stop fighting and retire-in-place, or just leave.
-CEO would be well suited to running a factory in a different area: employees are the enemy, and he gives them as little as he can get away with.
-Any perceived generosity is just a means to an end. Assume if you're working at this company that EVERYTHING is transactional. They ask for loyalty, but are not loyal to you beyond their immediate needs. Any example they provide to prove otherwise is self-serving BS.
-No actual employee growth. All promotions are based on urgent need, not any kind of thoughtful path. ("Who are we going to get to fill this seat? We're in a bind. Maybe so-and-so can do it? Why not!")
-Penny-wise and pound-foolish. Large emphasis on shaving cost off products. Quality and performance are only necessary evils and will be cut as much as possible.
-DANGEROUS culture for women. Not just talking about the constant blue humor which makes some people uncomfortable, but genuine harassment happens frequently.
-No, really. Don't let your daughter work here.
-Unprovable discrimination happens all the time. The company is good at providing deniability and preventing evidence. If it can't be proved in court, it's acceptable.
