AARP reviews

A LOT of micromanaging at the VP level (specifically in digital), lots of office politics and constant performance check-ins/quarterly reviews that seem completely unnecessary. Company does not support 100% remot work eventhough we managed it successfully for 2 years. Employees are required to come into the office 3 days a week for the sake of sitting in an empty office building; this company is NOT forward thinking - employees continue to leave the company in the masses. Zero "office culture" and low morale has been a constant theme for months.

1. Editorial leadership is nasty, out-of-touch and not forthcoming. 2. Content providers and lower-rung editors constantly ridiculed and abused by upper management. 3. Ideas must conform to assorted agendas. 4. Content producers are not valued. 5. Managers have no idea how to motivate or reward staff. 6. There's a Devil Wore Prada mentality among key senior editors. 7. Too many meetings, which seem to serve the purpose of justifying many underwhelming jobs.
