The aircraft concept is constantly changing with some unrealistic timeliness.
The CEO is out of touch with the reality and thinks everything can be done in-house, not acknowledging how much time, money, people it would take. He likes to command top-bottom.
Fires employees who are on parental leave or other employees as per him "no benefit to the company". Constant firing in the company - drastically bringing down the Swedish team (at least 80% reduction).
The CTO (Former Space X) has severe anger management issues. Thinks he knows it all, but in reality he does not. Comes with a vendetta in meetings and only wants to hear what he wants. Gives ideas which are totally wrong and would not be accepted by authorities, even for prototype flight tests.
There have been instances, where the work originally presented was accepted after going on a long "de-tour" as suggested by the CTO.
If anyone opposes his idea, he shows very evident aggression with his face getting red and shouting. Not once, but multiple times.
Also has favourism, where he thinks some of "his" people (US Team) knows more, even though none of them worked in aviation before.
People being "demoted" just because the CTO deems to think so.
Has not clear path of moving from prototyping to certification. As per the CTO, "Flight Tests" can be done in months. Think about it, a new company with no legacy knowledge, having this ambitious "Flight Tests" time line. Embraer, the fastest one to do for E195 took 2 years. Other big OEMs (Boeing, Airbus) takes couple of years. Just shows how unrealistic it is. No process and procedures too, should not be surprising.
An evident status divide created between Sweden and US technical team.
