Leadership and HR took a turn for the worst this year. I was really disappointed to start off the company at a high and then end on a low. I was overworked, undervalued, and felt used. They put monitoring software on the laptops which made employees feel a lack of trust from the c-suite. HR starting putting so many rules/red tape on things that you’d think this was a large company. Various people were randomly fired but the CEO covered up the way in which those employees departed (it was mutual) even though some of us knew how things really went down. I joined this company because of the mission and culture but towards the end of my time there, everything just seemed to be about numbers and power. Everyone seemed to be getting burnt out and the CEO even publicly humiliated a couple of leads from a department in front of everyone on the weekly company call. That’s when I for sure knew things were taking a turn for the worst. Things just started getting out of hand and toxic. Everything going on caused a lot of stress and anxiety which I’m glad to be rid of now.
