Svantaggi
Most of the problems at Checkout.com stem from bad senior leadership that promote favoritism and blame culture. They have had multiple rounds of layoffs and yet none of the senior leaders have changed, despite most being incompetent and unqualified to lead an organization. Leadership is not looking for creative thinking or ambition and only want people to blindly follow their orders. They do not accept feedback or allow you to question their decisions. This has created a culture in which everyone is beaten down and simply enduring their day-to-day work. There is no collaboration and everyone is only looking out for their own interests. There are re-orgs every few months so you never have stability or visibility into long term goals. Leadership will set simple-minded goals, such as "grow by X%", without any plans or details around how to achieve this. They will then throw individuals under the bus to save themselves when they do not achieve these outlandish goals. When people leave, they do not backfill the roles, forcing everyone else into an unrealistic workload. If you value yourself or your career you will stay clear of Checkout.com.
