Passionate Individuals, Toxic Leaders

Pros

The vast majority of individual contributors and managers are incredibly passionate about enabling the success of the cannabis industry. Additionally, these same folks are always willing to help or assist.

Cons

Where does one begin? Ever since Treez raised a $50mm series C round, it's been a downward trajectory. Leadership, from the director level on up, is incredibly toxic and oftentimes inexperienced. Most decisions are made in a vacuum and with little to no consideration or advance notice. Oftentimes, mandates would come down with an expectation that it's to be completed within hours - not days or weeks. Phrases like "work-life balance" were disallowed. Working 50-60 hours a week is considered insufficient. Most recently, the company has adopted the "wartime" concept described in the book "The Hard Thing About Hard Things." It's distasteful and disrespectful to describe working at a SaaS company in such a manner, with the CEO saying things like "we have to avoid the next mortar and gunfire." Lastly, recognition and kudos are non-existent. The leadership team, particularly the CEO, fully expects everyone to work as long and hard as they do. This comes with little to no incentive - even simple things like "good job" or "nice work" are non-existent. Nearly every accomplishment simply leads to the need to move on and complete the next task that has seemingly come out of the blue.

Pros

Fun industry & events. The product was ahead of competition but hasn't changed in years.

Cons

Another day, another round of layoffs at Treez. The root of most of the major problems at Treez stem from a group within leadership that are all friends. They have continued to blame others for lack of results, don't hold each other accountable, and push out leaders that make a difference or care about employees. Marketing is the only department left with a real people leader and until they make major changes at the top, Treez will continue it's rapid decline.

Pros

*Dedicated Individual Contributors: Most individual contributors are passionate and hard working *Reasonable Compensation: Salaries and Compensation Packages are aligned with other industries *Remote Opportunities: Treez allows for remote work opportunities, providing employees with flexibility and the ability to work from nearly anywhere. *Serves an Exciting Industry: Treez operates in the exciting industry of Cannabis, which adds an element of interest and excitement to the work environment. .

Cons

*Product Oversights: Treez's entry into new and existing markets continue to be plagued with oversights, which results in significant compliance issues. This negligence not only demonstrates a lack of due diligence but also reflects the company's disregard for legal and ethical obligations for the sake of rushing into markets and collecting subscriptions. *Unreliable Product and Frequent Regressions: The product released by Treez can only be described as highly unreliable, plagued with regressions during many releases. This pattern of consistently delivering flawed updates has left customers frustrated and dissatisfied. The lack of quality control and testing prior to deployment is appalling and raises serious concerns about the company's commitment to delivering a stable and trustworthy solution. *Absent CEO: The absence of a visible and engaged CEO at Treez is deeply concerning. With no strong leadership at the helm, the company lacks direction, guidance, and accountability. This absence of leadership trickles down throughout the organization, creating a chaotic and unproductive work environment. Unrealistic Expectations and "Wartime" Rhetoric: Treez's management team often employs "wartime" rallying calls in company meetings, creating unrealistic expectations for employees. Such rhetoric may sound motivational, but it ultimately sets unattainable goals, leading to burnout and demoralization among the workforce. *Understaffed/Under Resourced Support and Engineering Teams: The support and engineering teams at Treez are consistently understaffed and under-resourced. This results in prolonged response times for customer queries, unresolved issues, and a lack of timely bug fixes or feature enhancements. The company's failure to invest adequately in these critical departments undermines the overall customer experience. *Lack of Resources for Triage and Prioritization: Treez lacks the necessary resources to accurately triage and prioritize product gaps and markets. As a result, important issues are frequently overlooked or delayed, leaving customers outside of the majority market to suffer the consequences. This failure further highlights Treez's lack of commitment to expansion, customer satisfaction, and improvement. *Bullying and Fearful Working Environment: Leadership within Treez is known for its bullying tactics, which have created a fearful working environment that stifles collaboration and innovation. The toxic culture instilled by some individuals in leadership prevents employees from leveling up, speaking up, sharing ideas, or contributing to their full potential. *Lack of Accountability and Finger-Pointing: When misses occur, there is a complete lack of accountability within Treez. Rather than taking responsibility for their failures, leaders resort to blaming and finger-pointing, creating a toxic blame culture that further erodes trust and teamwork. *Overall Lack of Vision and Direction: Treez suffers from an overarching lack of vision and direction. There is no clear roadmap for success or a coherent understanding of what the organization aims to achieve. This lack of strategic focus undermines employee morale and hampers the company's ability to thrive in a competitive market.
