Svantaggi
Where to even start....
There was a recent reorg in early July, where many people were laid off, all under the guise of a change in direction of how the company was being run. They laid off the only VP who understood the direct sales market and technology, and replaced him with family who, if you look at their profiles, have only worked at family owned businesses and have no real experience in leading a team or driving technology initiatives. This became evident when there was no meeting or communications within the group to provide insight into what was happening around us.
There is no cooperation or support between departments either. The VPs and people other leadership positions who remain have displayed unprofessional behavior that includes bullying, offensive and racist language, and unwillingness to work together. This behavior sets the example for the people under their watch. This makes it nearly impossible to do a good job when all you are really thinking about is how to either avoid these people or figure out what their next undermining move is going to be.
