Pay is paltry against industry standards and the bare minimum needed to live in such an obscenely HCOL area but they're too out of touch to realize that. There gets to a point where "change management" no longer accounts for the relentless chaos and burnout caused by a revolving door of leadership, and managers openly admit they have no idea what the heck is going on. A lot of saying one thing/doing another, milking overburdened staff for all they're worth and calling it "cross training", and micromanagement of communication styles which led me to believe they don't actually care about good work being done, they just want it done their way. Their motto is "better, better, never best", which at first seems humbling and motivating but turns out it just means that nothing you do will ever be good enough :) Very low trust in executive leadership headed by the deeply uncharismatic robot in human clothes that is the CEO - big fish, small pond energy abound.
