Too little too late

Pros

Good leadership from the directors on down, smart friendly coworkers, interesting work

Cons

Out of touch executive leadership team shows nothing but contempt for the employees below them. The CEO has finally announced his retirement within a year, but enormous damage has already been done. The rank and file have suffered one adverse policy change after another, and the brain drain is well underway. The changes are so negative-sum and malicious that I can only assume that the company is actively trying to drive attrition to save money on severance after “good growth” turned out not to be so good. The CEO put his brother in charge of “business transformation”, which has been a fiasco. He wasted millions on consultants until they had to be fired when it was discovered they were producing unusable garbage.
