Minpunten
Equity and real money goes to the top in a vastly disproportionate way. Executives have disdain for equity sharing. Use M&A to mask no real internal product innovation in years. Each new generation of "leadership" is more manic and buzz-word fixated and insecure than the previous. Endless conversations about process, no productive output. No accountability for decision making. Decisions throughout the company are made privately and then imposed. Corporate holiday party spending is obscene. Everyone is a "leader" spending their time talking about process, very few are actually doing anything. Product has serious security flaws. Have not seen CEO on the floor in years New hires get dumber and dumber, are more and more scared of rocking the boat. Messengers are punished. Culture incents people to remain silent and go along with the head person's opinions. Basic cultural inability to use fact-based analysis to objectively evaluate performance or productivity. Managers use gossip to inform performance reviews. Management style throughout the company is very kabuki-ish. Obsessed with classist fear of being seen as touching technology. Employees spend more than 50% of their time socially managing their popularity collecting badges, recognitions and rewards in their gamified performance management system rather than doing their day job. Culture punishes people who say, "No", no matter the cost to the organization. Rewards go to the pacifiers, not the performers.
