Where is the leadership?

Pros

The acquisition ($$$) I am generally proud of the work I put out, despite serious lack of leadership within the marketing org as of late Flexible hours (good for families)

Cons

Transparency and company/team vision have gone completely out the window. This has been an issue long before pre-acquisition...we need a GLINT survey stat. Marketing leadership says that we "are more aligned than we have ever been" yet our QBR made it clear that it's not just my team that is getting insufficient direction and support from the top. Everyone is scrambling. Maybe leadership is just waiting for their check to leave. I'm coming up on a work anniversary and then I will be leaving. It's likely many others will do the same since no one knows what is going on.

Thank you for taking time to write a review and share your thoughts. Your feedback is something we take to heart. We know it’s important that you feel you can come to work and feel proud of your work output AND we know it’s important that you also get the kind of leadership that is creative, supportive, motivational and more. If you’re open to coming to share your feedback I’d love to hear from you. I’m not planning to cash out and leave anytime soon - that’s not the type of person or leadership team you have. We believe in the mission, vision and the strategic priorities we as a company and as a department set out to achieve earlier this year. Your leadership team is fully present and engaged - we’re here to build a great team and support the business. I’ll hope you’ll take the opportunity to share more feedback and be a part of the team that I think will continue to achieve some great things for those we aim to serve: job seekers and employers.

We really appreciate your honest review and feedback. Please know that our HR team routinely reviews our structure around total compensation to ensure its competitive with the current market and we make adjustments accordingly for all employees. We also consistently review employee feedback on benefits and perks to ensure we're offering what our employees need and want per office. Aside from some of the great perks you've already mentioned, we've also recently rolled out our new defined career path levels in hopes of providing more transparency to employees about how to advance their professional careers here at Glassdoor, which can often lead to higher pay potential too. I hope this helps!
