      Senior Leadership Is Clueless

      Lead account executive
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Middle Management (these managers came from a different company that Motion bought out.)

      Cons

      Leadership's approach to expanding business is nonsensical. Blames AE team for not expanding the accounts they are given that have historically underperformed due to terrible agreements in place.

      Leadership at the SVP level is driving the contract staffing division into the ground.

      Senior account executive

      Pros

      Strong operational infrastructure with excellent reporting, recruiting, sales tools, onboarding processes, and support teams.

      Cons

      The SVP of Motion’s contract staffing division operates with a highly arrogant, top-down leadership approach that discourages open dialogue and shuts down any feedback that challenges his perspective. Meetings are one-sided, condescending, dismissive, filled with contradictions, and more of an interrogation and not collaboration or partnership. Unfortunately, he is a Motion lifer so executive management continues to support him even with numbers being down, low morale, talented AE’s resigning in droves to join competitors, and a vast majority of his team’s production coming from Account Executives that were inherited through a big acquisition of another firm back in 2022. Truly baffling.
