Chaotic & Unprofessional the company has no idea what it wants to be when it grows up (or even what it is today) unprofessional management that often ignores or doesn't respond to employee questions/concerns performance reviews based on expectations never communicated to employees paychecks are always late very poor and 'cloudy' internal communication no vision for the future of the company; where are we going? - no focus ('We do everything') Biggest 'business' issue: CHAOS. We say we have capability in human-centered design, insurance, deal-making, blockchain, Slack, strategy, technology, UAV's, and a slew of other areas of expertise. But we don't have a core set of skills that we apply to all those areas. We're an inch deep and a mile wide, with no 'North star' to guide us. Biggest 'cultural' issue: TRUST IN MANAGEMENT. Management/execs tell you that you've screwed up, but don't take the time beforehand to outline your role, their expectations of you, or to answer your questions or concerns when you raise them. For a company that says it's 'people focused,' it leaves its people under-equipped, uninformed, and with little to no direction. But you'll be crushed in your review for not hitting all your performance expectations (that you probably didn't know about to begin with). Many of us joined the company because of the glowing description given to us by the execs during the hiring process. But reality doesn't even come close to how they self-describe the business. It's a mind-bending mess.
