Svantaggi
In my first week at the company, the CBO took me to dinner and spent the whole night smearing a direct report's reputation with salacious gossip--and this person was one of her favorites. In our department meetings, I witnessed regular public humiliation of team members (and experienced it myself). I heard the CBO chastise employees for being out sick, attending a funeral & going to the doctor after being injured in a car accident. In lieu of being a mentor and leading by example, the CBO fostered a culture of fear. On several occasions she made body-shaming comments about coworkers. I heard her make vile comments about pregnant & new mothers' bodies. One two occasions she made racist comments. When two female employees met her wrath for bringing a child to work on Bring Your Kids to Work Day--a firable offense, apparently--I realized that parents of young children are disadvantaged at Munchkin and the CEO is fully complicit. I later learned of multiple whistle-blowing efforts made in response to the CBO's behavior going back years. Like many who accept a position at Munchkin, I was fooled by the innocent appearance of a company that manufactures baby products. Stay away at all costs.
