- Management feels more and more disconnected from employees. I used to feel comfortable saying 'hi' and speaking up in meetings with C-level leadership. It now feels like we are minions/cogs in the machine to them.
- Managers are more focused on metrics over people. Yet, don't even know how to action the metrics.
- My manager even admitted how toxic our team is and yet he's not given the bandwidth to actually remedy.
- Management doesn't listen to feedback in All-Hands
- When bringing up issues via All-Hands Q&A, the only response leadership says lately is "bring it up to your manager".
- New Campus is frustrating to get to and work isn't flexible (despite them thinking it is) so be expected to go in.
- Nepotism; director hired on their best friend considered as a double promotion. This was into an area they have no prior experience in. The person is not doing anything that was expected so we basically lost a full resource we were expecting to have with this hire.
- Attrition; I can't go a day without seeing someone leaving the company either on LinkedIn or a 'goodbye' email.
- Micro-management and no compassion; during the height of the pandemic, I had ER visits for my sick pet. Instead of receiving compassion, my director asked me how I was going to be available if questions arise.
- Inclusion isn't there or lacking. We can only focus on one marginalized group at a time just to meet hiring metrics. Zero intersectionality or desire from majority of employees to learn about diversity and inclusion.
