Some genuinely good people who try to do the right thing.
Minpunten
Exyte talks about excellence but does not operate that way. Leadership regularly puts unqualified friends from past companies into key roles, and it shows. Quality is inconsistent, accountability is unclear, and basic operations slip through the cracks.
For a 100-year-old company, there is no real marketing function. Everything related to marketing and creative work is outsourced. The company depends on its communications team to project an image that does not match the reality of the work being produced. Internal communication is weak. I have never worked at a company where people were quietly let go and others had to find out through word of mouth. My own manager was not aware I was being laid off until I told him.
The company struggles with coordination, planning, and follow through. Employees end up covering gaps caused by unclear direction and poor leadership.
I was laid off right before bonuses were paid out. The timing raised obvious concerns about transparency and fairness.
There are good people here, but the structure makes it almost impossible for them to succeed. People at the top of the org chart are consistently protected.
