Good culture company with worst leadership in some teams

Pros

Level of importance given to employees by CEO. Culture and benefits.

Cons

Some teams doesn’t even care to follow the company’s culture. I’ve seen this in NXT Upgrades team. Lot of irrelevant process being forced upon the team which doesn’t make any sense. NXT Upgrades leadership both in US and India don’t even think about the resources and they just fight with other leaders to satisfy their ego. Upgrades team started with open minded people who are open to receive feedback and now the team is ending like a battlefield after the war with egoistic leaders who sideline people if any feedback is given and with employees leaving the company because of these leaders.
