The Higher the Level, the Worse the Management - werkgeversreview Vice President bij Edelman

Some of your core comments-around reorganizing responsibilities so certain folks can focus more on clients and think less about their "turf" are things we're actively improving now. However, while it's clear you were unhappy with parts of your experience here, i have to share that your personal insights are not in line with those that we've collected from the vast majority of existing employees. That isn't to invalidate your thoughts. From my perspective our leaders most certainly base their decisions on data and thoughtful evaluation. I won't disagree that laying off employees when we truly hated to do so and didn't originally intend to was a very hard and painful decision that we wish we didn't have to make. It was also a product of a global pandemic that our business was not immune to. I've been very proud of how our leadership has handled the unprecedented challenges experienced this year and I can share that based on data, the vast majority if our employees agree with me. I'm sorry that was not your experience and i wish you the best in these challenging times. Maria O'Keeffe, US Chief Talent Officer
