New Executives Made The Environment TOXIC
Pros
THE PEOPLE! Prior to the Yelp leadership takeover, this company was incredible. The culture was (past tense) amazing. Low turnover, the company leadership was motivating and collaborative, employee referrals were abundant, minimal politics and there was a great sense of community. We had a mission and we were focused on the growth of the people and the business. The RealReal was a fun place to work. We worked very hard because of our love of the company and its leadership.
Cons
Once the retail, HR, and field executive team leadership changed, the culture flipped to a vile toxic environment. So many people went on leaves due to stress and illness. There was no longer a sense that the executive team cared about its people. A huge exodus occurred and the best of the best talent left and are continuing to leave. There are many new roles open for a reason, HIGH TURNOVER. It is honestly sad and is still astonishing that the CEO was not aware of how her company was driven to toxicity so quickly by the newly hired executive team.
