Bad leadership. Leadership is not held accountable for their poor decisions Not. Constant change of priorities, lack of vision. Their product is losing market. CashApp is somehow stable, but square is constantly reducing its user base.

The company is following a predictable cycle that many of us have now lived through multiple times. Growth, cyclical layoffs, outsourcing the work to foreign “partner teams”, and constant restructuring to protect margins. This pattern has repeated enough that it no longer feels strategic. It feels reactive. Each round is framed as necessary evolution, but internally it creates anxiety, burnout, and loss of trust. Employees live in ongoing uncertainty, watching headcount shrink while expectations remain high. Teams are told to stay focused and positive while coworkers and peers disappear and the work shifts overseas to “partners”. It takes a real human toll. Morale has significantly declined and many of the employees left are operating in a constant state of uncertainty and burnout.
