      Out of Touch Management and Lack of Direction

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Remote-first setup, offering flexibility for employees who prefer working remotely.

      Cons

      The marketing team lacks clear direction and is frequently affected by inconsistent decisions from upper management. Constant changes make it difficult to execute effectively. Many younger team members are leaving because they don’t see long-term growth or a clear future at the company.

      Disjointed Leadership (Marketing)

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are some good benefits, and remote environment is ok if that’s what you prefer.

      Cons

      The marketing team is very disjointed and the CMO was not great to work for, at all. Lots of changes happen and leadership doesn’t actually care about employees, as the team is pretty big.
