Poor leadership and a mess

Business Outlook

Pros

Stop playing the favoritism card and hold people accountable.

Cons

Inept executive team with no accountability. Corporate office is full of favoritism and when issues come up, leadership blame others. It’s gotten really bad. Long hours, high turnover, do way more with less resources. No employees development plan. Absolutely, no work life balance. STAY AWAY
