Pluspunten
Prior to being acquired, 2e was my personal dream job. Incredibly smart, talented coworkers; engaged leadership that cared; well-organized and managed departments that worked collaboratively to solve our clients challenges. Creative. Strategic. And FUN.
Minpunten
Once acquired by Fishawack Health, management and leadership changed dramatically as did the vision for the company. The agency model changed to a network and became gigantic. C-suite & senior leaders were not able to be as involved or have visibility to abuses happening below the surface. What was once a welcoming and encouraging place to grow a career became increasingly toxic and unsustainable. The hardest part was that the leaders at the very top did not care about the abuses and issues manifesting at the smaller satellite company level. Even when exposed to clear violations of respect, abuses of power and unprofessional behavior, they turned a blind eye and allowed the abusers to continue their tactics without consequences. I saw the very worst displays of workplace citizenship get overlooked and employees who should have been reprimanded (or fired), were emboldened.
