Svantaggi

The biggest issue is leadership and by leadership it's really just the CEO. There is an apparent lack of vision and direction. Weekly changing priorities that is very reactionary to whatever is new that week. Being an employee here, regardless of your role, you will instantly feel like a contractor who is just expected to execute on the CEO's "vision". There is an apparent lack of trust that is put into the product team by the CEO and everyone is micromanaged and basically told how to do your job. The culture is very drab. You go into work, be told to do some things by the CEO, regardless if you agree, do them and go home. There is absolutely no platform to challenge the CEO's ideas that you'd see in healthy product teams. You're put in a difficult place because it seems like a majority of the team reports to the CEO and you feel like if you challenge his "ideas" you're jeopardizing your job...yeah, it's that bad. The company is way behind the competition and is struggling to remain relevant. This is likely due to focusing on all the wrong things and not focusing on improving the customers experience and wifi overall wifi performance, the main product.
