Stunningly mismanaged at the highest levels of the organization - avoid at all costs
Pros
There are certainly pros to working at Sentrana. Firstly, their above-market compensation is lovely. Secondly, they really are good about investing in their employees' professional development.
Cons
Bad CEOs are divisive - they undermine a company's sense of unity, undermine erode in the organization, pit colleagues against each other. Truly awful CEOs, the worst of the worst, are unifying. Such is the case with Sentrana's CEO, Syeed: he is universally distrusted by his employees, uniformly regarded as lacking the most basic of leadership skills, and acknowledged widely as a man who seeks constant praise and affirmation from a small posse of sycophants and yes men, to the obvious and unmistakable detriment of the company. Syeed has managed, over the course of his tenure, to reduce the company's revenue by 800%, to drive away top talent by relegating them to unrewarding and mindless work should they ever dare to disagree with him, and is personally responsible for the departure of three top industry executives consecutively in the past two years alone. Advancement at any level is impossible without his capricious approval (remember that this is a very small company). Go to Sentrana if you're looking for a cushy salary and gentle pace of work, but stay far, far away if you're looking for a well-run company that genuinely respects its employees and will offer legitimate opportunities for advancement.
