- Leaders do not foster growth or support employees. Some of the worst micro management I've seen in my career. While I was told I was doing a good job, the reminders to stay in my swim lane and the regular critiquing of specific wording in emails, jira tickets and presentations showed a lack of trust in me. Although I am very experienced in tech, I often felt I was treated like an entry level employee.
-Poor culture. Lots of silos. People at Linc don't root for each other. It's every person for themselves. Occasionally, leadership seemed to be receptive when I shared concerns, but most interactions with management were abrasive and short, which did not set the collaborative or supportive tone that I expect in a professional workplace.
-Linc lacks a clear customer and growth strategy. It was difficult to grow accounts because I felt unsupported. There was no clear focus. Product Management, Analytics, and Engineering put up barriers at every turn. Meetings scheduled with the product team were declined with no explanation. Internal collaboration at Linc is nearly non-existent. In addition, the executive team does not seem aligned on a vision or growth strategy. Linc used a disproportionate amount of resources to save a very small, high demand client with no strategic growth opportunity, while large enterprise clients walked out the door.
Also, the high employee turnover throughout the company did not instill confidence and speaks to Linc’s lack of a comprehensive customer and employee centered vision. Right before the Holiday, Linc laid off over 60% of its workforce, and frankly they kept many of the employees that made working there a less than pleasant experience. This company isn't going to make it.
