Non-existent communication between the higher management and the rest of the company.
Long hours and no work life balance. Leadership says were sprinting and resting instead of running a marathon. That means, you won't finish the marathon.
CEO goes on long rants on all company meetings and talks about himself in the 3rd person.
Sometimes you'd wonder if everyone is seeing the same issues as you do. Pretending the massive elephant in the room doesn't exist and everything is normal when everyone knows the product and leadership have no plan.
You realize soon that everyone has worked together before or are related to each other. Nepotistic. This makes it very hard to know who to go to when you have a complaint specifically about leadership.
