Cons
Leadership and management is dysfunctional, unorganized, reactive, toxic, incompetent, cliquey, egotistical. Nobody is ever on the same page and it creates a constant feedback loop of never-ending fire drills. Leadership is so obsessed with their individual images that they will continuously scapegoat, point-fingers, and gossip. I can confidently say that many people in leadership are not only unqualified from a technical/expertise perspective, but are not qualified to properly lead a team/work cross-functionally. Lastly, leadership does not have their fingers on the pulse of the asks of their employees. They so easily assign difficult projects with unreasonable timelines. There’s too many cooks in the kitchen and it makes each task so much harder and longer to complete in an already stressful, toxic, cliquey environment. There is no amount of communication that seems to help because you cannot out-communicate your way out of organizational dysfunction. I can’t tell you how many times I was waiting on a “yes/no” answer so I can move forward with a time-sensitive project and leadership (C-Suite, VPs, senior managers, etc.) responded with “wait, what is this for again?” - which is especially frustrating because they are the ones that requested the work I was presenting in the first place. As long as you’re not in Operations, AG seems like a fun place to work. If you’re in Operations, then best of luck.
