Svantaggi
Turnover is extremely high (From August 2018 to September 2019, all but one full-time staffer, excluding the CEO, left the organization. This includes folks who entered the organization and left within that year). CEO micromanaged some tasks while failing to communicate clear expectations, leaving staff unable to act on her unspoken but very real expectations. Hiring practices are at best incompetent and at worse intentionally deceptive (for example, new hires are told they receive 30 days of PTO. Yet, PTO does not accrue for 6 months, and accruals are not retroactive once an employee reaches six months. As such, first-year employees who were promised 30 days are actually given 15). The CEO casually discusses employees' performance with other employees even when those conversations should be confidential. This is a small, 10-year-old "start up" with no HR department. The CEO does not appear to understand the basics of management, including how to conduct regular performance reviews or how to give feedback in a way that encourages growth and action.
