Bad Management

Business Outlook

Pros

- Free shoe samples - Was close to home until they moved all offices to Toronto - Customer service was amazing. - Low-level office had good energy - Our team was great to work with.

Cons

- Top management making bad decisions - All Canadian offices were closed down and moved to Toronto, some people had been there for 15+ years, but top management didn't care. - Salaries were low compared to exact same job in US. - So many missed opportunities. - One day they would promise something, the next would say they never said that.

Worst company culture, worst senior management and worst termination practice !

Senior product development manager

Business Outlook

Pros

I can't think of any...

Cons

1. Politics is sooooo thick. The worst in the industry. There is no career growth even if you are talented. You have to suck up to your boss. 2. GOG VPs prefer to hire employees out of past work relations and not because of talent. There is no diversity. Only hires people who nod their heads and follow their boss blindly. 3. Termination practice is the worst. Director levels, Senior Managers, staff level, it doesn't matter. If the one above wants to get someone in due to personal reason and not business/ performance reason , they will! It has happened so many times - during pandemic, and after. It will keep on happening unless they change the VPs in GOG.

Pros

- The people and community feel - Early office closure on Fridays... breakfast and coffee freely available... regular team drinks... drinks trolley - Opportunity to get involved in different projects... at least within Europe

Cons

- Senior staff in the USA who have little to no idea on how things work in the UK or EMEA... but want to micromanage everything!! - Huge workload with ever-decreasing resource and no acknowledgement of this in salary/package
