Company Culture Collapsed, Leading to Mass Exodus of Talent - Anonymous employee Etumos Employee Review

Edward here: You're spot-on. I managed to build the company from nothing to 9million by specializing in innovation, system design (technical and process, and organizational)--people management is not a native skill to me, and I caused major problems in 2025Q1 when I came with system-design solutions to attain profitability. I've learned humility and trust-falling upon our Etumotes, but too late for people like yourself. We have some more stable foundations now to grow from, but I'm sorry for shaking things up in damaging ways with my return. You can see my responses to the other reviews along here for some more context, but it's too little / too late for the most part. I can only hope to rebuild with the same positive outcomes, smarter for our next stage of growth. If I could do it again, I would re-enter with gentleness and a listening tour. I accept that I can't redo the past, but I can learn and improve from my mistakes. Now that we're back to a profitable 2026Q1, I'll be building smarter and with humility and humanity going forward. Sorry that I didn't get a chance to prove myself before driving off great employees. Rooting for you, wherever you go as an employee and employer! With humility and earnest authenticity, Edward
