Pros

100% remote, big brand name, beautiful product

Cons

Lots of leaders who cannot keep folks accountable. I’ve worked with a lot of other business sectors and the legacy people who have been in the business for three years are the biggest blocker for growth. Lots of incompetencies, inability ti answer direct questions, and poor team management. Picking pointing isn’t the best strategy but it is the main strategy used at Getty in product.
