1. High-pressure environment: the work setting is demanding, which can add too much stress for certain people and require constant focus.
2. Occasional chaos and unpredictability: processes can sometimes feel disorganized, making it challenging to plan and stay on track.
3. Decision-making from management: leadership often makes decisions that seem unclear and may not communicate them effectively, leading to confusion and dissatisfaction.
4. Dependence on key individuals: in my opinion, most of this company's success relies heavily on specific team members, which can create risks if they leave or burn out.
5. Inconsistent culture fit: there is a push to adopt a more formal, corporate-style culture and communication, which may feel out of place in a startup environment and misaligned with the company’s current stage.
6. Sometimes the company management forces their own subjective approach on the teams, for example: introducing a "hybrid" work policy with most of the days being from the office, which was not consulted, and individual way of working of each team member was not taken into consideration, it was just communicated and forced everyone to do that in the name of "productivity" which has nothing to do with the place you do your work. Introducing this approach is a con on its own.
