Former Employee - Recensione dipendente - Manucurist presso Julep

Fast pace, growing, great culture

None great place to work!

I worked there for over a year in a senior management position with some really wonderful people who are genuinely trying to build a good company. Love most of the products and still use a lot of them.

Unfortunately, Julep is a mess with an unhealthy culture that starts with senior leadership and trickles all the way down. CEO has created a culture of blame and hinges most major decisions solely on her own opinion. She's hired good people with experience but doesn't listen to them. She's created a culture where only "yes men" stay out of trouble. CEO is smart but no one knows everything, yet she will not listen to people who know what they are talking about. There is a lot of turnover as a result. The amount of money that got wasted was staggering. I witnessed many meetings where the group agreed to something that most people in the room privately thought was a bad idea -- but no one dared speak out against the CEO. CEO is constantly smiling and telling people that Julep is one big family but I can assure you that they don't really care much about employees as individuals. "Assume Positive Intent" is something they say a lot but the culture has created an environment where most people are just trying to shift the blame on to someone else so can survive.
