Supporting Losing Clients, People and Trust!

Pros

Good colleagues and was previously able to run a business without micromanaging.

Cons

I am supported Losing Clients, Losing People and Losing Trust posting. As a sales-driven organization, maintaining strong client relationships should always be a priority. Clients should feel valued and supported, not approached purely from a collection or transactional perspective. Relationship management, professionalism, and mutual respect are what sustain long-term business growth. CM roles, especially management positions, should also focus on contributing to business growth, team development, and creating a healthy working environment — not becoming overly focused on minor internal matters while bigger operational concerns remain unresolved. Building a business is never easy. Those involved in sales and business development understand the pressure, effort, and persistence required to maintain clients and generate revenue. This is why leadership should always take time to understand the realities faced by teams on the ground before placing blame on individuals. High employee turnover is often a sign that there may be gaps in communication, understanding, support, or leadership approach. Constructive feedback should be encouraged openly and fairly from all levels, rather than relying on one-sided narratives or surrounding decisions with favoritism. I genuinely hope higher management will take the opportunity to listen objectively, evaluate situations fairly, and create an environment built on accountability, professionalism, and mutual respect for everyone involved.

Pros

There was a time when this office was an amazing place to work, back when we had Country Managers who truly understood the industry and was the right fit for the business.

Cons

So, let me break down the vibes at work right now. The office basically turned the place into a finance bro’s fever dream. First up: townhalls. These are not townhalls. This is just CM's solo podcast nobody asked for. No other department gets to talk. Might as well rename it "The Profits & Punishment Hour." All she talks about is money, money, money. Bestie, this is recruitment. Not Wolf of Wall Street. We build relationships, not just spreadsheets. Now let’s talk about the daily ick. From department heads to the analyst has weekly one on ones with her. Her whole calendar? Blocked. Plus, have to submit weekly output reports. That’s hours of paperwork for people who should actually be talking to clients. So instead of doing our jobs, we're writing essays for Big Brother. It's giving surveillance state, not workplace. But wait, there's more. She turned our client managers into debt collectors. Like actually. They have to send payment chasing emails weekly basis before the due date. With interest threats. The Credit team now acts like they’re in a law drama threatening legal action for payments that aren't even late yet. Our managers used to build relationships. Now they're just sending "pay up bestie" emails with no rizz. And the consequences? Shocker. Clients have noticed. They know we’ve turned weird and aggressive. Years of trust? Gone.. They've noticed we went from partners to payment police. So of course we're losing projects... And our Country Manager? She's not even in the chat. Industry contacts don't know her. You can't win business if you never leave your spreadsheet cave. Meanwhile, inside the office? Toxic. People are quitting. Attrition is high. Why? Because you can get publicly humiliated in front of everyone for a tiny mistake. And if she really doesn't like you? Boom. PIP. But not a real one. A "we want you out" PIP. It's giving ✨hostile work environment✨. So yeah. She runs this place like a CFO who forgot we're human. No presence, no trust, no relationship building. Just numbers, pressure, and bad vibes all around. 💀
