Poor leadership

Recommend

Pros

Excellent co-workers and highly skilled, will to teach if you are willing to learn.

Cons

Senior management are 'yes' men to the CEO. They cannot even decide on a product delivery schedule without requesting and receiving the CEO's approval. Staff are always under the constant threat of staff reductions.

Ok company...

Pros

Great people, good work environment, global opportunities, Tom was fun and interesting to learn from, everyone worked very hard, work life balance was good

Cons

Teamwork needs improvement, different groups were treated differently, finance team and HR teams were not very helpful - acted like traffic cops vs. enablers.

Pros

There are a lot of good people that still work for the company, but unfortunately I don't see any in my reporting structure

Cons

Very poor communication, little consideration for employees, poor management decisions, low pay, decent vision but the day to day isn't attached to reality, micro-managing from on high, constant change/disruption with expectations that the employees will pick up the pieces and work overtime to achieve what is then required with little information but many demands.
