It's no surprise to learn that both of the companies the current CEO (George) ran prior to spoonflower went bankrupt under his leadership. He is short-sighted, fosters a cliquish environment, and treats employees as disposable.
During my short tenure, I watched multiple employees get laid off. We're talking about people who had been with the company for a decade, and had been instrumental in shaping the success of the brand, only to get unceremoniously dropped after the company failed to hit unrealistic growth expectations two months in a row.
I watched as a new employee was hired, handed a massive project, pulled 50+ hour weeks without a single day off to make the deadline, then immediately laid off within days of the completing the project. The CEO took a 3-week vacation to Germany the following week.
