Flexibility No More & Losing Hard Workers

Anonymous employee

Pros

Camaraderie between department is a pro, and the hybrid policy was a pro but that has quickly been stripped from workers. Company garden & cafeteria, sometimes.

Cons

Out of thin air, CEO decides for everything to go back to ‘pre Covid times’. Meaning no more hybrid work and no more remote work. This has been more of an incentive to lose very good talent and get folks to leave because of the ‘no lay off’ policy. Quite frankly, this rule is reducing morale drastically, and people are quitting which is probably what he wants to reduce costs. CEO does not value workers, and the “lean but not mean” culture is quickly disintegrating. Every decision is made from the CEO, which is just unreasonable. Upper management is like a child and the CEO is the parent and every one wants to be the ‘golden child’. It is a disgrace how some departments are not treated fairly and others get to pick and choose what policies they abide by. Pay is also below average and career progression is at a low.

Pros

None. Might make a good movie about how bad decision making, toxic culture, compromised and broken people, and poor leadership decisions can destroy a company.

Cons

NETSCOUT is like a corporate horror movie. Too much corrupt leadership to advance, too little sincere effort to change. Overrun by bad and broken people, (good people are silenced), failed leadership, some execs married to each other only looking out for themselves, harassment - and other violations, slander, mobbing … Stakeholders should notice. Active mousetraps under employees desks to catch infestation of mice. Should have tried to stop infestation of bad people. Some execs rumored to be senile, enjoy pitting people against each other for fun. Legislators and others watching.
