Management is a boys club and is set in their ways from 30 years ago. Low pay, below-average benefits, siloed teams, incompetent HR, minimum 9-10 hour days at an office job. Unnecessary fire drills and weekend work for projects that didn’t require it.
Leadership is very hierarchical which can inhibit collaboration: a person’s title matters more than their idea. Leadership seems unable to determine priorities, and a lot of work feels like a wild-goose chase that is then undone weeks or months later when management inevitably pivots in a different direction.
The data and tech landscapes anre also a mess and impossible to work with. They have been talking about cleaning it up for years, but TBD if this will ever happen.
This is easily the most disorganized company I have ever worked at. My coworkers and I, all hired around the same time, had an agreement that we would all quit within a year.
