Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast

Pros

There have been great people I've met along the way, people that deserve true recognition and appreciation. Benefits are above average.

Cons

Culture and "Leadership". Plain and simple. It's a very toxic work environment. There is inconsistency in following work policies, narcissistic executive leaders (sales, marketing, IT), seething disgruntlement, and now telling people they will be demoted and cut in pay. Director level feeds off off this toxicity and are very childish. Pointing fingers and the blame game are very popular at this level vs. working together as a team.

Pros

Vacations People are nice No quarterly focus Don't care about revenue--they are 'non profit'

Cons

Management has no clue Strategy=Accountability for management so no one does it No successful new products in 2 yrs of new management Senior leaders fight amongst themselves---unless CEO in room. There is no focus other than CEO and what he wants. Promise but no execution Talk but no actions to back up

Pros

Great benefits and opportunity to work with some really smart people that actually do the work.

Cons

The recent restructuring at the company resulted in the unexpected layoff of a significant percentage of the workforce. This has not only impacted morale but has also strained our ability to effectively execute projects slated for completion before year-end. The abrupt departure of seasoned employees, many of whom held crucial knowledge and experience, has left noticeable gaps in our workflow, particularly with upcoming major projects and annual processes. Constant shift in culture and ovelap of prioroties. No review of risks, just expectation to get the job done. Management decisions, including promotions and changes in policies, lack transparency and meritocracy. Opportunities for genuine professional growth seem limited due to no documented promotion plan or growth programs. The evolving bonus structure each year creates an unpredictable and unfair reward system. Feedback and performance reviews seem capped, which may not truly reflect the hard work and dedication of many team members. Additionally, seeking support from HR can be more challenging than anticipated, making it difficult for concerns to be properly addressed.

Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback about ISACA. While the reduction in force was not an easy decision, we know it was the right move for us with respect to being able to reinvest in our future success. We will keep sharing information about this transparently internally, as we have been through town halls, our intranet, and team meetings, to further our employees’ understanding of our strategy, and what this means for prioritization and workloads. We are also very committed to supporting our departed colleagues’ job searches and future success – many people, right up to our CEO, have been actively networking and making connections where possible, in addition to the career support program we offered to impacted employees. Regarding promotions: We updated our policies over a year ago, held information sessions about them, and published them for staff. I'm sorry you did not see this information on our intranet. We'll try to find more ways to ensure employees are fully aware of all the resources at their disposal. Again, thank you for your feedback. If you have any specific suggestions for improvement, please feel free to share them with the People and Culture Team at peopleandculture@isaca.org. Your voice matters, and we are dedicated to working together to keep making ISACA a great place to work.
