WORST senior leadership ever experienced

Pros

Good comp Nice colleages / peers

Cons

Most unprofessional senior leaders I've ever experienced- narcissistic, unprofessional, and egomaniacs who are totally unqualified to run their sales teams - stay away, every conversation is about who they want to fire that week without investing any time into coaching or development - all the senior leaders should be let go and replaced if the company wants a shot at making it - otherwise, it's like being back in highschool with leaders whose self image is more important to protect than the actual business. The company values they claim to uphold are completely disregarded - senior leaders make no attempt to take accountability/ownership over any of their poor decisions - not to mention ive witnessed too many times senior leaders partaking in discriminatory comments/incidents to count- do yourself a favor and stay away from this toxic place until they get new field sales leadership that are actually qualified and professional to do the job that needs to be done correctly. Lastly, if senior leaders continue to feel the need to voice their so-called "accomplishments" that aren't actual accomplishments on a daily/weekly basis with more emojis than anyone ever needed to see, let that be the first sign that someone needs to dig deeper into their masking of inefficiencies and inadequate behaviors - leaders that feel it necessary to continually boast about their abilities to lead with integrity should be the 1st of many major red flags - never have I worked with leaders who feel the need to boast and compliment themselves as much as these leaders here at square. It’s clear that it’s a deflection tactic to take away attention tha should be spotlighting all the orgs major issues -
