Pros
1. Flexible hybrid work arrangements 2. Lack of micro-management 3. Optimal office location and pleasant office 4.
Cons
1. Extremely poor team morale across the office. Restructuring has laid off many of the old guards, and in turn brought about a domino effect where more & more of the old guards are leaving. 2. Team culture is non-existent. No effort was made to integrate contract staff into the team purely based on their status in the company, despite them doing a lot of the heavy on-the-ground lifting. 3. Absent on-boarding process - lack of laptop and network access provided within the first few weeks (which is the bare minimum). Staff are expected to use their personal devices, which raises eyebrows about the legality of it. There are many more examples. 4. Missing leadership presence. Leaders issue directives but absolutely do not want to get their hands dirty - majority of work is simply passed down with no guidance. This often results in newer staff taking on tasks above their paygrade which is highly inefficient from an org standpoint. 5. Flexible work arrangements results in majority of the team not being physically present in the office. Lack of a physical presence hinders collaboration, which is counter-intuitive for a people-driven company.
