- It makes sense to be metrics focused, but quite literally everything is focused around the bottom-line, at the expense of employees' mental health -- unfortunately of women especially.
- The growth teams are especially heinous when it comes to management. The powertripping and micromanagement, probably unbeknownst to the rest of the company except for the victims who suffer from it, that takes place borders on absolute insanity. There is no trust given to employees to accomplish something on their own. The company espouses "honest and transparent" as a value. And sure that is important, but that should not have to come at a cost of baseline respect.
- A general culture of taking credit when something good happens, and scapegoating when anything goes south. This does not reflect my experience of every manager in the company, to be clear, just growth related managers.
- If a company has this much churn and burn, some self-reflection should be in order. A simple example of why Ivy league smarts does not translate into emotional intelligence, of which middle management is cracked DRY. Performance reviews are very top-down, and feedback is not welcome the other direction even though the company claims, and will likely respond with some bs that it is even here on Glassdoor.
I have never felt so degraded, humiliated, and unconfident of my ability working at a company. Honestly, it destroyed a lot of my self worth and also that of other women who I know do not work at the company anymore.
