Directive reviews

It's hard to know where to start. Every single negative review here is true. Some more incensed than others, but each one is based in fact. Working for this company is not worth the $ and senior leadership's (CEO) alleged 'personal' values are not reflected at all in management of the company. His toxicity as a person spreads to other senior leaders that might otherwise be kind and reasonable people, but are forced to stoop to his level to keep their jobs and stay in his good graces. I am not usually one to engage in things like this - I had my experience and moved on - but this culture is so beyond toxic I felt it my duty to warn others, both prospective employees and clients. I personally witnessed verbal abuse in company town halls and in more private circles. I'm talking truly shocking language and interactions. People are hired and fired at a whim if they no longer fit the constantly changing business plan or the new initiative of the month. My mental and physical health suffered greatly due to this company and I can say the same about colleagues (some that still work there) that I keep in touch with, although I do not purport to speak for them. I could go on with many, many examples, but that sums it up.

Culture is toxic, expectations are off the charts, and this company will crush your soul. We churned through employees from top to bottom and pace is pushed so hard that you're ultimately cornered into working 70+ hours a week or you'll fall behind and be viewed as incapable of fulfilling your role. I've witnessed verbal abuse during my tenure, was personally berated both verbally and in writing, and had a direct report resign after an occurrence. At one point I reached out to an ex-colleague to say hi, only to receive a startling profanity-laced reply about the company (months after leaving). Intensity, power, and willingness to sacrifice work-life balance seem to be worn as a badge of honor. To the extent that "culture fit" during the hiring process was synonymous for whether a candidate would be able to handle such fiercely condescending behavior...alongside an onslaught of work. My experience goes substantially deeper, in looking back I'm just glad it's in the past. I recommend looking elsewhere, the grass is in fact green on the other side.
