Pros

A flexible work environment that genuinely supports balancing family and personal life in a sustainable, healthy way. The people you collaborate with day to day are thoughtful, capable, and respectful. The work itself is engaging, with topics that are genuinely interesting and meaningful.

Cons

C-level executives and senior management are operating with a dangerous level of detachment. They believe they’re fully informed and “clued in,” but in reality, they’re insulated from the day-to-day realities of the business. Information is filtered, inconvenient truths are dismissed, and signals from employees and the market are consistently misread or ignored. This false sense of awareness is part of the problem. It leads to overconfidence in failing strategies, delayed course correction, and a pattern of doubling down on decisions that aren’t working. Meanwhile, the people closest to the work—those who see the issues clearly and have been raising them—are sidelined or disregarded. The result is a leadership team that mistakes proximity to power for insight, while the actual state of the company continues to deteriorate.
