Reorgs to hide company disorganization. - Engineering Babel Street Employee Review

Thank you for the candid feedback. There are themes in your comments that we recognize. The past two years have included significant change — leadership transitions, organizational adjustments, and shifts in direction as new leaders brought new perspectives. We understand that frequent reorgs and evolving priorities can feel disruptive and frustrating. Over the past several months, we’ve taken deliberate steps to create stronger alignment and clearer ownership. We brought in a President and Chief AI Officer, a new Chief Revenue Officer, and new heads of Product and Engineering who now operate under a unified structure. That alignment is intentional — bringing product and engineering together under one accountable vision so we can move faster, reduce handoffs, and deliver with greater clarity. Earlier this month, we held a company-wide all-hands to connect that structure to our North Star through 2027 and beyond — outlining how our product vision, operating model, and execution priorities come together as one company strategy. When product and engineering are aligned, it strengthens everything else: speed to market, customer impact, and long-term growth. Many of the concerns you raised — around ownership, consistency, and direction — are exactly what this next phase is designed to address. The focus now is steady execution, clearer decision rights, and delivering on the commitments we’ve set. We know confidence is earned over time. That’s the work in front of us.
