Poor quality, over-worked, works not-smart - Product Manager Chewy Employee Review

Too many stories of projects being pushed forward that were crippled due to poor infrastructure, poor thought, too many egos, unclear goals, that lead to delays, loss of moral. Too many projects and alarms thrown down from the top. The leadership cares about the most minutia details, leaving little space for the mid managers to thrive and innovate. Leadership team thinks in terms of incrementally, in the name of 'Operate at Depth', and there is little scope for innovation. When you are fighting for survival and being able to answer all the small questions peppered by ELTs, there is no mental capacity to 'Think Big'. Time is spent in small details to make sure we can 'earn trust'. As a talent, I want to spend that time to Think Big, to really innovate and drive much bigger shareholder growth. A very unhealthy working environment. Error margin is small. Fear is constant. I would urge talented folks to leave, and I hear that many are.
