The CEO created another business that he is making all employees of DA use and pay for. This is a serious time and emotional energy commitment every single week. Although I do believe in the business and want to particiate, it feels very wrong to force (yes, we have no choice) to commit to such when we have so much going on with a restructure, and so much going on in our lives that leadership doesnt know about. I wish it was at least optional, but since its not, it feels like something Jake is doing to make money off of us. When asked if we had to he said "if you dont want to take the courses, maybe you arent a good fit for Disruptive" which honestly was really jarring.
Leadership truly, truly doesnt understand how things actually work for the people doing the jobs. They made decisions and have opinions that make no sense to the majority, but I do appreciate them trying to get feedback and learn.
