You could be the smartest person in the room as all of the competent employees have left. The upper management runs a very lean environment, like anorexicly lean and operation never improve; jump from one emergency to the next. On top of that there has been a steady stream of layoffs which really destroys employees' moral.

Management does not value their employees as individual contributors, nor do they trust them or treat them as professionals. Many employees had work-from-home forms submitted and approved by management and we were told that wasn't going to change. But that was suddenly taken away in April, no exceptions. They said face-face collaboration is important. I don't know about collaboration as we had no issue with that being remote, but the current in-person discussions at the office center on the hypocrisy of management and how little they care about employees. If in-person collaboration is so important, why are 80-90% of senior management NOT on the San Diego campus (corporate headquarters) the required days per week? Why are 100% of senior HR not on that campus, or any closest office? Why are we being threatened about return to office rules when the top folks don't follow their own rules? Isn't it important for the PEOPLE RUNNING THE COMPANY TO COLLABORATE IN PERSON too? But they are all listed as home office and exempt from return to office rules. They don't have to suffer long commute times and high fuel prices which further reduce below-average salaries. Recent layoffs of 10% of workforce (mostly long-timers) to keep the doors open, but they are hiring! We can't meet obligations and schedule, but they lay off the people actually doing the work, not the many layers of VPs and other upper management that would save them millions per year. Betcha those upper managers get a fat bonus this year. Management has proven that their word is meaningless. HR is demeaning, condescending and hostile. Their function is to browbeat employees and stand in the way of promotions. Not only is management dishonest with employees, but apparently vendors too. We have vendors refusing service until they are paid. Employee morale is in the toilet and getting worse by the day.
