The ship is sinking fast and management is busy duct taping it - Anonymous employee OnDeck Employee Review

Unfortunately, there are quite a few people here who make you want to bang your head against the wall and then drive yourself off a cliff every time you have to speak to them. For all the talent that there is here, there are also a ton of people who are still around and getting promotions purely due to tenure. These people who have been here for years have no basic understanding of any of the existing systems and are not held accountable for doing their jobs well, but they somehow get promoted every year because they've been around. Management has no idea who is actually doing great work and who isn't; they reward those they hear yell the loudest and barely glance at those who get the job done without the politics or the drama. Exec and the People Ops team here has not done anything to retain people after 2 rounds of layoffs, leading to a massive exodus of talent over the past 2 months. A lot people who were key to the success of the organization and had strong knowledge about our business and our platforms have left.
