Pros

Remote environment, smart team, cool clients

Cons

Directive's fear-based culture is toxic. If you ever think you're getting comfortable in your role here, think again. The CEO seems to think that leading through fear is the way to go, and he expects all the other leaders to follow suit. If you're not a yes-man, you might as well start packing your bags because you're on your way out. It's like a revolving door with employees coming and going, and there's hardly any room for growth. Middle management tries their best to shield the team from what's really happening, but once you take a peek behind that curtain, there's no turning back. The expectations they place on employees is flat-out unrealistic. Requiring us to hit 100% of our goals every single quarter is insane. How on earth are we supposed to bring in 15 new clients, meet these astronomical client-set goals with no budget, and still find time to actually get some work done? Don't get me started on how they expect us to be experts in platforms we've never even used, despite the sales team swearing it would be a walk in the park. I've never seen an organization that talks so poorly about its own team members. It's like a never-ending cycle of gossip and backstabbing, and it goes both up and down the ladder. You can bet that if you're hearing someone talk negatively about someone else, they're doing the same about you. It's like everyone's just out for themselves, ready to throw you under the bus at the drop of a hat just to move up the ladder.
