Stay away! - Manager Article Employee Review

I am deeply disappointed by the experience I have with Article. The company's executive leadership is shockingly incompetent, and it is clear that they have no idea how to lead a company of this size effectively. The Marketing Leadership, for instance, has risen through the ranks quickly but is clearly not cut out for leadership in an e-commerce business. They default to micromanaging, which has caused a great deal of turnover within the department. Despite making major mistakes, they seem to be immune from any consequences, which suggests that they're part of a tight boy's club that values loyalty over competence. Thinking they're the smartest person in the room, despite having no idea how to create and execute a proper strategy is infuriating. The CEO is no better, with a clear unconscious bias that has led to drive-by management and a shocking lack of knowledge about his own business. While he likes to discuss issues on a philosophical level, people are losing their jobs due to the company's lack of direction. Maybe this is the reason why we don't have a BOD, there is no one to hold him accountable. The COO is stubborn and unable to collaborate effectively with his colleagues. He has failed to secure buy-in for a new operating system, which has resulted in a failed implementation. If this situation is not rectified soon, Article is in danger of collapsing, despite the many talented people within the company who are still trying to make a difference. The entire executive team appears to be unaligned, and this has been a major point of feedback from employees. However, instead of looking inward and addressing these concerns, employees are told that they will 'explain' the company's strategy one more time. This kind of dismissive response only serves to exacerbate the frustration and disillusionment felt by those who are struggling to make sense of the company's direction. In conclusion, I strongly advise anyone considering doing business with Article to look elsewhere.
