The new CEO is terrible. He has the charisma of a bus station bathroom stall. He is making very bad decisions. I think he is just using this company as a stepping stool. He is going to sell the company so he can add that to his resume. And then he will leave, making other people clean up his mess.
His public speaking abilities are nonexistent. At the first townhall he was bragging about the company’s diversity. In his own words: “I have two black women working for me”. Who says something like that??!! He doesn’t have a clue what’s going on around him.
Our business continuity team came up with an alternative work arrangement policy last year. As soon as the new ceo started, he cancelled it. And the business continuity group just rolled over and agreed without any arguments. Grow a pair guys.
I already gave my two weeks’ notice, so none of this affects me. But I made some very good friends at TCB, and I feel bad for them. Good luck everyone!
