The Company does not adhere to their own Company Values, it seems to be one set of rules for the staff and another for the higher-ups. "We are one team" - it is challenging to collaborate across departments... impossible procedures and roadblocks around every corner leave you doing what you can within your immediate team and create global divides. Something as simple as solving payroll discrepancies can take months to resolve due to having to try and communicate across multiple departments and 3rd parties. "We innovate" - Budget constraints and painfully long procedures make innovation difficult across the board. You'd be surprised to see how little automation and AI technology a SaaS company of this size is adopting. "We own it" - The acting CEO uses the term "Transparency" as a tool to condescendingly speak down to staff and throw executive peers under the bus (multiple instances) while simultaneously never admitting to any fault. Now, this one is the big kicker... when the Board decided to remove the flexible work arrangement (with little notice to staff) they removed all mention of it on socials and blogs without once acknowledging it to the public, essentially sweeping the whole thing under the rug. Not very "We keep it real, have the courage to stand up, speak out and embrace challenges. Success and failure, we are accountable to each other and act with respect and transparency in every situation" of them. "We care" - If the above isn't already enough, the reason I left the company was that they couldn't uphold this one simple value. The direction the Company is moving shows no real care or value to its staff. I have seen coworkers mental health affected and just across the board treat their staff as replaceable. I find this funny as you can definitely find better pay in similar roles, the main draws card was the benefits and work week which now have been taken away. "We have fun" - I genuinely believe this to have been the case once upon a time, however now, it's almost like this is held over the staff's head. " We laugh, enjoy what we do and never turn down a reason to celebrate. (And we play a lot of ping-pong!)." I think in 2023, any Company that references Ping Pong is overcompensating for something, no?
