Pros
Since the previous ownership left, the strengths that once defined the company have rapidly unraveled under the current President’s leadership. Culture, trust, and direction have deteriorated in a way employees feel is directly tied to decisions made at the top. Many employees no longer recognize the company they joined and believe it is being steered poorly.
Cons
Since the leadership transition, the company has shifted toward performative messaging instead of real problem-solving. Weekly Monday emails read like obvious ChatGPT scripts that avoid the operational failures employees are dealing with. The disconnect between executive messaging and day-to-day reality is impossible to ignore. Employees are told to bring concerns privately rather than speak publicly, yet there is a clear pattern where disagreement is discouraged. People have learned that challenging leadership carries risk, so silence has replaced honest feedback. Many employees believe the company is prioritizing loyalty to the President over real work ethic and results, which discourages independent thinking and pushes strong performers to disengage. Morale is deteriorating, retention is worsening, and churn is visible across teams. Experienced employees are leaving while leadership messaging insists everything is stable. The refusal to acknowledge the severity of internal issues is accelerating the company’s decline.
