Vantaggi
Mission/purpose of rare earth mining and supply chain independence: doing good for the earth
Svantaggi
-Leadership and communication styles could feel inconsistent depending on the individual/team involved, especially from Head of People and Culture, whose approach often came across as reactive, political, and unnecessarily difficult
-Workplace culture at times felt exclusionary and overly political rather than collaborative, with favoritism and optics seeming to matter more than actual teamwork
-Employees were not always set up for success with clear expectations, alignment, or support, despite leadership expecting consistently high output
-High pressure environment with shifting priorities and limited structure, often driven by last minute changes and unclear direction from management
-Strong performance and measurable results did not always translate into recognition, stability, or trust, particularly if you were not closely aligned with leadership personalities
-Decision making could feel reactive rather than strategic, creating confusion, inefficiencies, and avoidable fire drills
-Frequent organizational changes and turnover impacted morale and long-term planning, while underlying leadership issues often went unaddressed
-Feedback and accountability did not always appear to be applied consistently across teams, with some individuals seeming to be held to very different standards than others
