CEO is destroying morale

Recommend

Pros

Really interesting work in some areas A few VPs deserve their title for leadership, vision and compassion Benefits are still strong for now

Cons

Forced return to office with out any logic is destroying morale. What happened to flexibility? Gong in to sit in an office with the door closed while you are on virtual meetings with people all over the country wastes time and takes away employee empowerment. Benefits are slowly eroding TOO.MANY.VPS!!

Pros

Great co-workers and a collaborative environment. Still some pockets of the great place it used to be.

Cons

Executives are much too remote and add little value. All-hands meetings are designed to manipulate not inform.
