Knew I was in trouble when a leadership meeting was kicked off with a Bible verse. The best member of the C-suite, the only one who knew what they were trying to achieve, left and everything careened downhill at a breakneck speed from there. The rest of the leadership team have egos more fragile than glass, so be warned: Do not push back ever or you WILL lose your job, sooner rather than later. They pride themselves on not accepting bigger loans from banks and firms, being real bootstrapped grinders, but the truth is these folks laugh them out of the room for having no idea how to position the business. Are you a podcast? A creative services firm? A training platform? Instead, they take money from customers and give them empty promises and constant product pivots in return. Every choice and philosophy is unoriginal and half-baked to boot, stolen from the latest rise-and-grind podcast or self-help book they find. It's no surprise these ideas don't work because they have no patience to test and observe data, just changing trajectory — e.g. new processes, entirely new products — on a whim when they don't have immediate results. And, again, if you question these choices, you're iced out then removed with no provocation. No variable bonus, no stock options, no vision, no idea how to grow, no identity, and never push back against leadership because they only want yes men or else you’re out.

Leadership pretends to care about employees' well-being and career growth. They will tell you constantly "Transparency Wins" (a core value) and to be open about the things that you see that could help the company, however, if any of that is in any way directed at failures in the leadership team expect to be let go out of blue regardless of performance or living up to "core values." You'll notice all reviews of this company were great for years when they were focused on serving the mission, and that's what made the company known in the industry. What changed was the shift in Strategic Leadership that tarnished everything the company had built and was building towards. This group of 5 men are quick to find scapegoat employees and fire them to cover themselves rather than looking at their own failures in leadership. You're better giving your time to businesses and people who will invest back into you, this company is not it.
