Waters reviews

Narcissistic Senior director drawing huge salary that lack domain expertise. Despite holding a senior position, the director demonstrates limited understanding of complex sales processes and scientific marketing methodologies, which are critical to our business success. He has image driven leadership, has noticeable emphasis on maintaining a polished personal image and crafting favorable narratives for upper management, often at the expense of addressing real operational challenges. Echo Chamber Culture, the director has cultivated an environment of conformity by surrounding themselves with individuals who consistently affirm their views, thereby discouraging constructive dissent and critical thinking. Workplace bullying, He also has unrealistic expectations and biased evaluations, his staff are often held to impractical standards, and those who voice alternative perspectives are at risk of receiving disproportionately negative performance evaluations

As any large company, doesn't seem to be much flexibility in many HR policies, e.g. getting additional time off, either paid or not. Specific to my area of IT and software development, is a bit behind the curve in CI/CD and some software practices such as governance.
