Leadership Culture Undermined Good People

Pros

Good product & people work hard

Cons

I’ve witnessed a pattern of high-performing individuals leaving or being pushed out, not because of performance issues, but due to internal politics, ego-driven leadership, and a lack of psychological safety. Concerns were often dismissed or deflected rather than addressed, creating an environment where speaking up could work against you. While the company positions itself as innovative and supportive, the internal culture in some teams—particularly leadership—did not reflect that. There was minimal accountability at the top and limited support for employee wellbeing or development unless you were in favour with leadership. The most talented and ethical colleagues I worked with either left voluntarily or were driven out by pressure and undermining behaviour. It’s a shame because there is potential for greatness if the culture shifted toward transparency and values-based leadership.

Pros

Just a standard company that is run by a venture capital group, no cultrue and only concerned about the bottom line and it got worse after the original CEO left.

Cons

All they care about is how much money, lost their culture

Pros

A lot of leave per year.

Cons

I am in non-sales role, the salary is way below the market rate. Th only thing that keeps me here because the culture is good. Still we needs to pay our bills.
