Utterly toxic at the top

Software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Superb, brilliantly talented rank and file.

Cons

Truly toxic at the highest level in a way I have never seen before( and I spent 5 yrs in Silicon Valley). Some people at the very highest level have positions based on personal relationships, not somptency and all that that leads to. some truly deranged people at VP level who have no idea or experience in what their work entails.
