Pros

Serves some amazing clients New CEO may not be as villainous as other C-levels

Cons

Lies by omission to clients Has lay offs roughly each quarter Promotes based on favor not function Militant, ableist leadership, some yell in meetings and have been reviewed by HR multiple times with no results Poor business practices Cronyism prominent among C-suite hires Morals Ethics Attention to detail Long term vision Respect for employees Abuses foreign hiring Abuses people pleasers Abuses young employees still on parents’ benefits Claims flexible paid time off to avoid paying out time accrued Buys all competition, further pigeonholing/forcing clients hands, failing to complete responsible mergers Intentionally headquartered in US state with worst employee rights and uses these advantages cunningly Invests unnatural amount of time in manipulating reputation management rather than fixing product issues and listening to reviews Laundry list of complaints at EEOC Currently in legal battles over unethical employment practices Lack of ethnic diversity in executive leadership

Incompetent Management hurts employees

Pros

Nice Coworkers, Interesting work, PTO, WFH

Cons

Management is completely incompetent. They have no idea what they are doing - and when something blows up in their face, they blame the employees for the issues they created. Layoffs happen all the time like candy. A recent All Hands said that the turnover rate for last year was 20% - even worse, HR was happy about that number!

Manipulative Leadership

Pros

I made some great friends during my time at Daxko. People tend to get close when they're trying to cope in difficult environments.

Cons

The CEO likes to hide behind prepared statements and the messages passed down to employees are calculated. There are no growth opportunities, if you're lucky your manager will be honest and tell you this from the start. They want high turnover so they can continue to pay less than market averages for the same role. They do not care to invest in their employees. I was a manager on my team at Daxko, I left the company and took a lower title, and increased my salary by $8K. They'll say they're doing what they need to do to survive, but the truth is their leader is unequipped to navigate his team tough times. Tough times require empathy and he just doesn't have it. He loves to say that no one wrote a book on how to survive the pandemic, and while that's true, it's a cowardly response to his mistakes. He talks about Extreme Ownership but refuses to take ownership of the countless negative reviews that are left about his leadership. He actually asked employees to NOT leave negative reviews during a company all-hands. Leadership has convinced themselves they are doing the best they can. I don't accept it, and that's why I left.
