Svantaggi
-Most of senior management is underqualified for their position and lean heavily on untrained, inexperienced junior staff to do the legwork. When things go wrong as a result nobody takes accountability. -The CEO is deliberately abrasive and highly manipulative, especially in convincing junior staff to join or stay. "You are a star," "You are a future leader of this company," "You have all the opportunity in the world here." Applies to everyone -Unsustainable turnover -Below-average pay -Overpromise to clients to win business then wing it because nobody has experience with that work -Gossip culture and favoritism -Hypocrisy of what is said vs done -No training or teaching for new hires -No real investment in team or concern for team's wellbeing and happiness; "like it or leave" mentality -Promise of growth and the title you reach is not recognized by the industry outside Vermeer's walls -The list goes on...
