• Leadership is completely disconnected from reality, with no clear vision or genuine concern for employee wellbeing
• Toxic culture where politics and personal alliances matter more than performance or expertise.
• Decisions often feel arbitrary, last-minute and poorly communicated, leaving teams scrambling to cope
• No meaningful investment in people’s growth or career development; employees often feel stuck and undervalued
• Day-to-day work environment feels stressful, demotivating and thankless
• Very poor communication from senior management important changes are often announced last minute or not explained at all, leaving teams frustrated and confused
• Little understanding or respect for cultural differences in international offices; a narrow, headquarters first mindset that fails to engage local teams
• Observed a surprising lack of compassion or flexibility when employees go through serious personal crises people can feel treated as entirely replaceable rather than valued human beings
