Pros

benefits are good if you stay long enough

Cons

This is a prime example of how poor leadership can ruin an entire organization. The mid-leadership team is filled with people who are not qualified for the job but were still hired through "strong recommendations" from leaders at the company. Since January of this year, the retention rate has been declining despite 2024 being a very rough job market. I would be curious to see how many people would choose to stay once the job market improves. Also, don't believe it when they say they care about you and your growth opportunities, because this is 100% a lie, unless they can benefit from it directly.

Pros

- some of middle managers are good but are unfortunately stuck constantly cleaning up the executive teams mess

Cons

- chief of staff more like glorified CEO brown noser - head of product has no idea what’s going on - ultimately the biggest problem here though is there are no consequences: incompetent work doesnt get challenged, competent work doesn’t get rewarded. A select group of favorites can do whatever they want. Even the president who made the most inept judgement calls and had poor management got away with a $20 million golden parachute. Nothing matters unless you are best friends with the CEO. Deliver exceptional work? You’ll get a big THANK YOU! But don’t except a bonus, promotion or salary bump. They really don’t care.
