So much churn and strategic misdirection
Pros
Incredibly smart and talented people, when given the opportunity to solve complex problems we can excel at it. Compensation and benefits are also great, even in the current Covid environment and industry chaos.
Cons
So much attrition. We have lost so many talented people, and our recruiting process is a mess so we miss out on backfills/new hires that get snapped up by more nimble competition. Strategic direction is muddled, CEO says one thing and it gets interpreted poorly down the ranks. So much churn and poor decision making. In the midst of all the industry chaos and belt tightening, we have progressive politics pushed on us at every turn, which is a massive distraction and frustrates people who just want to do their jobs in a politics-free zone. Feels like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic at times.
