Minpunten
- The transition from a startup mindset to a structured corporate model remains incomplete. This creates uncertainty in strategy, culture, and ways of working. - Compensation practices are not consistently aligned with inflation or market benchmarks, leading to noticeable gaps across teams. - Flexibility and trust in employees’ ability to manage tasks independently are declining, with increasing focus on rigid attendance and leave tracking. - High employee turnover, including within functions that should be driving retention and engagement, has impacted stability. - Cost-cutting measures are frequent, with limited transparency around rationale or long-term strategy. - Performance evaluation and bonus distribution processes lack clarity, with employees often feeling outcomes do not reflect their actual contributions. - Collaboration across teams is limited, with silos and uneven management capabilities affecting alignment and execution. - The overall environment has started to impact creativity, morale, and market competitiveness.
