Once a Great Company, Now Struggling with Leadership and Direction - Anonymous employee Lexipol Employee Review

Executive leadership has created a highly toxic environment over the past few years. There is a consistent lack of transparency, empathy, and accountability at the top. Feedback and differing perspectives are often dismissed, conversations tend to be dominated rather than collaborative, and decisions are frequently made without considering the impact on teams. Favoritism is common, with support and attention often directed toward personal hires or close connections, while broader teams are left unsupported. Product rollouts are often disorganized, with products pushed to market before they are fully ready. This frequently leaves sales and marketing teams confused and frustrated while trying to position offerings that are still half-baked or not functioning as expected. All of this has led to a significant decline in morale and turnover is extremely high, particularly within Sales. The former CEO also “retired” and was recently replaced rather unexpectedly. Since the new CEO came on board, there have been several leadership changes. This company used to be an amazing place to work, which makes it especially disappointing to see how much things have deteriorated over the past two to three years. Candidates considering joining should do thorough research, ask direct questions about leadership stability, compensation, and product readiness, and carefully evaluate whether the current environment aligns with their expectations.
