Company became very large, cuts to personnel for growth led to uncertainty

The company culture hasn’t just declined, it’s fallen off a cliff. What used to be at least somewhat functional has turned into an environment where morale is consistently low and frustration is the norm rather than the exception. There is a complete lack of respect for employees and their feedback. People raise concerns, suggest improvements, and try to engage, only to be ignored or worse, see decisions made that actively go against their interests. It feels less like mismanagement and more like a deliberate choice to prioritize short term profit for those at the top at the expense of everyone else. Problems are not addressed, they’re buried. Issues that clearly impact teams and performance are brushed aside or quietly swept under the rug, creating a culture where nothing improves and the same problems keep resurfacing. The way compensation is handled is particularly concerning with pay increases and bonuses withheld. That, combined with an obsessive reliance on useless metrics, makes the environment feel hostile. These metrics aren’t used to support or develop employees, they’re used against them, often unfairly and without context. To make matters worse, the company relies heavily on a proprietary coding language that is effectively useless outside of this organization. That means the longer you stay, the more professionally boxed in you become, with experience that doesn’t translate elsewhere. Overall, it’s an exhausting place to work. There’s a clear disconnect between leadership and employees, a lack of accountability, and very little evidence that things are going to improve.
