- Poor middle management - Lack of professional development plans - management always pushing us to deliver, while ignoring our professional development and growth

I am very disturbed by the steep decline in culture and values in the past year. The company continually pushes minority leaders out the door, nearly all women product leaders have been pushed out in the past 18 months alone. In the meanwhile, while it takes a woman on the product team 6+ months to be able to justify a case for promotion to director, the white men on the product team get multiple promotions within a couple months. They keep finding excuses to “layoff“ women product leaders, or women leaders suddenly “resign”. One of the white male senior directors brags about how he’s so good at getting people to accept departure packages so he doesn’t have to actually fire them, and interestingly enough, all the people he convinces are women and often women of color. I’m truly disturbed by bro culture of the product team.
