Lack of leadership - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Actum

Great colleagues and very talented professionals. Interesting clients Flexibility

Despite the company’s stable growth, the way it treats people is unacceptable. Layoffs are frequent, sudden, and handled without basic respect — for example, language teachers were terminated via email, while their students found out before them. All employee benefits disappeared with them. Unfortunately, the CEO is dragging the company down. His public behavior, especially on LinkedIn, is highly unprofessional and damages the company’s reputation. He openly disrespects remote work and assumes that anyone not in the office isn’t doing their job. In one all-hands meeting, he even asked people to leave the room simply because they chose to stand rather than sit. An environment led like this is neither healthy nor safe. The rest of the leadership team operates in a similar manner — lacking empathy, trust, and transparency. All decisions are made solely by the CEO. HR exists only as a formality and is treated as a powerless back office. In my business unit, one of the top roles is held by a person with an extremely toxic attitude — constant belittling, micro-management, and dismissing the experience of even highly senior colleagues are common. This behavior is not only tolerated by leadership but actively encouraged. Because of this, even the most talented people who are still holding on are likely to leave soon. It’s simply not a sustainable environment to work in long term. Also, dont expect any salary increase even if the company is growing and you get great feedback.

Friendly atmosphere unless you spoke with someone from upper management (8 out of 10 are micromanagers with ugly behaviour)

Goals changes to quickly, not a clear vision. Micromanagement. Spending wasting. Oftem changes in management. False promises.
