Svantaggi
The company is going through multiple reorgs - Go to Reddit, Google it, and read about it. Lots of very capable people's positions were eliminated. I am writing this review because I MUST share my experience. It's important that you interview the teams and the manager thoroughly, before you accept a role with the company. The company says: 1) Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, 2) Challenge the status quo, 3) No retaliation for speaking out. It's nice when it works, but the company needs to go into the layers of business or teams to discover that this is not true in most cases. I was in a team where leadership was very authoritarian and "old school". VP has been with the company for two decades which is good IF continuing to grow as a leader (see Advice to Management section). As a people manager, I didn't represent or speak to my team's accomplishments in formal meetings, give recognitions to my team members in formal meetings, and empowered to manage my team (my manager (new in her role) always intervened). Speaking out meant: 1) I wasn't a team player, 2) I threw people under the bus, 3) I didn't fit the company culture. In this team, people are scared to speak up for fear of retaliation. If you aim to please and nod to the leadership, you are in good standing. I provided my team Psychological Safety, but I didn't receive it from leadership. I reached out to HR partner for guidance on how to deal with the situation, but HR partner was unhelpful. Ultimately, it impacted my mental well being - They retaliated because I called out No Vision, No Strategy, and had a team that rallied in challenging the status quo. There was no action plan to improve the results of the biyearly employee surveys. Most of all, it was a head scratcher to expand teams without a clear Vision and Strategy- Business Impact: unproductive resources, more people than work available, and limited or lack of learning opportunities. Because a C level leader authorized the team expansion, the leadership behavior is rewarded or endorsed.
