Poor Leadership - Recensione dipendente - Senior Manager presso Akamai

- Inconsistent Leadership: Leadership at Akamai frequently changes, leading to unclear and often unrealistic goals. This inconsistency makes it challenging to accomplish tasks effectively as objectives are not clearly communicated throughout the organization. - Misleading Sales Practices: Some products are marketed to large enterprises despite known issues that render them ineffective for such clients. The company continues to sell these products, hoping to resolve problems before they become evident to customers. - Frequent Layoffs: Our company experiences layoffs more than once annually, with little to no subsequent hiring. This pattern has resulted in overworked and burnt-out teams, as remaining employees must absorb the responsibilities of their former colleagues. There is no clear communication about when these layoffs might decrease or when additional support might be provided. - Lack of HR Support: The HR department has been notably absent in addressing employee grievances, offering little to no assistance when issues with leadership arise, including instances of what could be perceived as malicious behavior. - Unprofessional Behavior: Some leadership members have engaged in conduct that undermines and intimidates employees, including the use of belittling language and firing threats. These actions persist despite employees seeking support in navigating the company's challenging culture.
