Pros
Great story. There is such vitriol for Oracle and IBM it's keep it simple we are not them and here's why.
Cons
The C-Suite has no experience. It's not the best survive it's the liked survive. They ignore the premise of work hard play hard. It's a want to be start up but doesn't feel anyone is worth an equity stake. The compensation plan is about as off as off can be and they have laser focus on only the top getting rich they don't want to acknowledge its the team that will get them rich. A lot of lip service. "Tell us if management is failing you." That's an I dare you. The COO is a fish out of water. He was given sales leadership responsibilities yet has no sales pedigree. It's damning to the individual contributors. He leads by calling people out and sends emails that are negative energy and feel "let's do it!!!!! At the end is motivating. Leadership needs to open up the circle and they never will. Once you are out of the circle of trust you are out.
