- High turnover, even among C-suite. (5 CMOs & 3 CROs just in the last 2 years.)
- Constantly pivoting the entire company in new directions due to leadership impatience and desire to please shareholders, rather than relying on the experts they hired to do their jobs.
- Gaslighting from HR regarding "competitive pay structure" when market research shows we're paid below average for our roles.
- No pay increases in the last 3 years, not even to combat inflation.
- Multiple rounds of layoffs with existing employees picking up the responsibilities for no increase in pay.
- Clear discrimination against US-based employees due to cost of retention, with roles regularly transferring from the US to the EU.
- No evident career growth process, as external hires are preferred.
