How many layoffs till no one is left? - Anonymous employee Future Employee Review

(Warning: Don't place too much trust in reviews from 2015 onward, as managers literally begged employees to write nice things on Glassdoor, in attempt to improve a rightfully damaged online rep) - Real decisions made in UK, leaving US employees relatively powerless - Consistent year to year layoffs, forced vacations and furloughs as outdated business model tanks - You're often worried you'll get laid off next OR your team will shrink, adding more responsibilities to already overburdened workers - Not much room for advancement thanks to many crucial US roles shifted to UK employees - A print company that recognized power of online market far, FAR too late. Trying to slooooooooooowly fix this has lost them tens of millions over the years - No consistent vision, as CEOs and VPs rarely last two years - Vacant senior positions often transform into junior ones, leading to a massive drain of talent and ability - Despite being in a creative field, content is meaningless to most decision makers. Written words, video, and art are supremely undervalued, with SEO and sponsored content vastly preferred - Ad team gets bulk of praise at company meetings, as everyone else is bored to tears hearing just how many deals person X booked last quarter. All the praise is doubly confusing when Future U.S. so rarely has any profits to speak of - Management quite gullible to fads, snake oil salesmen, and overspending on flashy (but mediocre) folks who they hope will fix Future overnight. Management is shocked by lack of immediate turn around, then runs off in search of its next possible savior - Long tenures and loyalty often a liability. Future is much more likely to hire outside than promote within - or they'll just put a UK employee in that slot
