Pros

The people are amazing and some of the smartest people I have ever worked with. It’s unfortunate many of those employees are leaving or considering leaving due to recent CEO change.

Cons

The new CEO (Jeff Carr) is disconnected from team and running great employees off with his abrasive narcissistic approach to leadership.

Thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback and sharing your experience. I’m very sorry to hear you had a less than stellar experience with me. We’ve been going through a series of changes and a big transition over the last 12 months that haven’t been easy, but I’m committed to helping us chart an exciting new course. This includes embracing all of our core values, leading with humility and resolve, and listening to the feedback from our team of what I and we can do to improve. The management team and I are committed to transparency, quality, innovation, growth and building a positive, fun work environment that embraces the diverse interests and career aspirations of all Inkblots. As with any evolution, change takes time and persistent commitment. We take all of the feedback very seriously, and I’d be happy to personally discuss any other suggestions you have. You can always email me at any time if you are open to sharing more feedback! Jeff Carr, CEO
