Vantaggi
* some of the smartest, kindest, most dedicated colleagues I've ever had still work there (for now) * the CEO likes wasting money on holidays and international conferences 🤷♂️ * no one knows what they're doing, so you can take on a lot of responsibility and learn a lot of you're able to be proactive * One person in particular works hard on creating a positive environmente
Svantaggi
* value-washing - for the team, this was about improving the lives of patients. For the leadership and investors, they shout about the mission but it seems like it's about making money. R&D is slowly dying amidst waves of surprise redundancies when they're finished with you. * diverse and inclusive team is now run by white, older men with a couple of token white women sometimes * many great people have left due to frustration and not being heard. Many more have been pushed, sometimes secretly. The people left are almost the handful who are the highest paid, and a handful of friendly, but inexperienced juniors with jobs too big for them and no strong support. * founder-CEO - great at telling stories, but those stories change every week, and with it so does the strategy. Whilst he's a good popularist person, his lack of professional experience means that he is too easily influenced and still makes unilateral decisions without strong justification. You leave a conversation with him feeling heard, but 5 minutes later he seems to have forgotten and is promising the opposite to someone else. He struggles to trust his team and let go. * investor-led - given the challenges Entia has faced, investors have stepped in and now heavily control everything obviously and behind the scenes. This is no longer a place for creatives and engineers who care about patient outcomes.
