Detailed time tracking required for staff

- Incredible coworkers. - Flexible schedule (after about six months of employment). - Work is varied and fairly stimulating. - The majority of the client pool are wonderful to work with.

-The CEO is incredibly difficult to work with. Quite abrasive, and at times, will make offensive and nearly problematic comments to employees. -The "middle management" (people directly underneath the CEO) will often tell employees to "do what [CEO] wants or quit," which does not foster an environment of collaboration or acceptance, which the organization claims are pillars of their success. -Termination requirements do not seem to align with the requirements given in the employee handbook, as write ups are not consistently defined as such. -On the subject of improvements, PIPs (performance improvement plans) typically feel less like an opportunity to help an employee improve in their role, and more of a box to check in order to fire them. Many employees have claimed that a PIP is nothing more than a notice from leadership of imminent termination. -Leadership no longer protects employees, often quick to blame developers or project managers or team leads for negative outcomes with clients. A "customer is always right" mentality to the most extreme level. -Internal disputes with leadership are often visible to the entire company, either through public Slack channels. Leadership and the CEO, at times, have openly spoken poorly about employees to other employees. -There is little to no positive reinforcement. Positive outcomes are praised minimally or not at all, while negative outcomes are often focused on in front of the entire company. -There is little room for developers to grow / get promoted without becoming inundated with meetings, which then can cause those developers to get reprimanded for lower output of quantity / quality of deliverables. -Tenured developers that DO pivot often are not given the grace of new developers, even if they are brand new to the "field" they are pivoting to. (Ex: a software developer with two years at the company pivots to the web development team and has little to no prior web experience. That developer is reprimanded for not providing top quality web code on their first web project).
