Dysfunctional Leadership

Business Outlook

Pros

Best reasons for employment at Riverside are the co-workers. Amazing people, most with tremendous focus and drive to accomplish the mission.

Cons

Dysfunctional leadership presents itself in very poor decisions, inability or no desire to listen to those doing the actual work, too many people dictating tasks or directions that often conflict, and strong disagreements between business units that adversely affect the work force. A non-profit being run as a for-profit.

Riverside Research Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback about your experience at Riverside Research. We're proud of the collaborative and talented teams we've built and are pleased to hear you value your coworkers. We also appreciate your insights on leadership and take these concerns seriously. We’ll make sure they are shared with the appropriate teams for review.
