Desventajas
Please do not be swayed by the money thrown at you to join this company. They call it danger money for a reason. You end up selling your soul and time away from your loved ones, with expectations of being constantly available and responsive and for what? To have the strategy changed on an almost weekly basis so nobody in any part of the business has any clue what they are doing or why. If you are considering joining this company you need to assess where you are in the org. If you are close to the executive team it would be a truly adventurous move to join. You need to be willing to say yes, ask how high to jump and be comfortable in pivoting what you're working on without batting an eyelid. You must also be willing to lose your job on the turn of a dime and be back out in market so quickly you're left wondering what happened. This is a true "churn and burn business" if you speak up, have an opinion or don't agree with something, be prepared to be iced out by the leadership team until you're so uncomfortable you leave on your own accord. There is nobody with enough courage to have a conversation, there's no such thing as transparency, hence why no resignations or terminations are shared. They just let you find out on Slack when you go to message someone and oh! Another profile deactivated. Shocking! There is a sense of the Hunger Games as you sit there wondering if the person left of their own accord or if it was one of the many smaller and quieter redundancies. A grave lesson was learned by the executive team after the large round of redundancies that made the news. DON'T DO BIG BATCHES! Do it quietly and one by one so it doesn't make the papers. Don't tell anyone in the company you are doing it so employees are left to see as one by one their team members stop showing up. If you are further down in the org then you need to pray for a manager who is willing to go to bat for you for opportunities, promotions and to keep the wolves from your door piling on more and more work because employees are quitting in droves or are let go. A truly bloated executive team of roughly 10% of the company. Most have a Chief of Staff to show off like a Birkin bag and nobody has any clue what any of them do. Is there really enough work for the executives to do let alone them plus a Chief of Staff? It's astounding. And with a handful of legacy staff that were hired before their insanely strict hiring practices were brought in who if they interviewed now they wouldn't stand a chance of getting a job there. There are different rules and expectations for these people such as no real requirements to actually do any work, they can delegate to anyone they please, openly complain about being too busy or say "it's not in my remit". These people truly contribute to the toxicity and the feeling of it's us (the employees) vs them (the executives). There is a conscious effort to separate and segregate both people and information so you stumble along with little to no context hoping you're heading somewhat in the right direction. This company is true case study in how to destroy a culture in a matter of years. It's what happens when you get a bunch of poisonous people together to run a company without any level of transparency, direction but with a healthy dose of patting each other on the back for really not achieving anything at all. Enter at your own risk!
