Bad Leaders Alwauys Results in Poor Results - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Notarize

In early 2022, Pat brought in CFO Kartik Ramachandran initially to raise additional funding. Since then, Kartik became the de-facto CEO and an ineffective and emotionally unintelligent one at that. When the economy turned sour, Kartik took over go-to-market and, when CFOs takes over GTM, it became all about cost cutting. He had the whole company drop ALL balls that did not serve top 20 customers, set goals unrealistic in these economic conditions, and poorly communicated strategy and implementation to non-executives. The guy intimidated employees by raising his voice and talking over people during company-wide meetings. He clearly doesn't know much about the product and is terrible at change management. The same high-growth startup situation with leaders that don't know how to lead in tough economic situations. Employees should expect no loyalty or kindness when executives only protect their own piggy banks.
