- Don't see a lot of Innovation still or being first to market - Everyone at C-Level is white, I'll never forget when the CEO talked so passionately about BLM and DEI then he promotes two white men to this C-suite and/or leadership team. He completely missed the perception with this move. - DEI was such an "important" theme, but no action or outcome. Don't understand why you would hire a DEI person when this person only recruits. - Most of the people leaders at this org, mostly Dir+, are terrible people leaders. There's some who have very passive aggressive or aggressive communication styles. There's a few good leaders who work in interest of both the business and people, but most end up focusing on how to manage up. Watching these people froth at the mouth and throw fits made me realize there's a different standard on how Dir+ vs everyone else gets treated. Doesn't live up to the very Values they keep posting on every open wall. - VP+ will say one thing, but do another. For ex: Telling people to have compassion and understanding as everyone is running lean and overworked, but when you say I'm drowning due to the workload, the answer is a shrug and "so is everybody else". Then when you resign, they act shocked and try to throw money at you to stay. Money won't solve these problems. - Sites aren't treated as well as Corporate . Corporate has things like baristas come in, fancy espresso machines, frequently catered lunches, etc. I feel bad for the sites. I pretty sure they know they're the ignored stepchildren. - The hours: Expect to be worked to the bone; This org runs lean. You have to work more than the traditional 8 hours and on the weekend to stay caught up because there's always an emergency that happens every week. God forbid you try to take more than a week off bc there's no one with bandwidth to take over your work. Imagine taking a vacation stressed out. It's not a vacation at all. - Too many long tenured people who don't want to or can learn how to do their work efficiently. They are very comfortable in their role, hate any changes, and plan to retire there. It's not even an age thing, it's literally the mentality of "I deserve to coast" from these long tenured people. - Merit and promo increases are a joke. Imagine getting promoted and finding out it's at the very lowest of the range. Wow. What a way to incentivize someone. - And the cherry on top: Being given harsh feedback with zero examples at annual review that you have never heard of in your entire career without a single perf check-in at all. Wow. This was the final incident that drove me to resign.
