Pros
* Committed and hard working colleagues - the team comprises genuinely nice people who support each other during both highs and lows.
* Competitive salary - while the salary is good, it’s essential to consider the trade-offs.
* Inspirational purpose - the IP carries a lovely message, which can be motivating short term.
Cons
* Uncertain company future - the organization’s instability due to frequent layoffs and redundancies over the past two years raises concerns, and the lack of a clear strategy or commitment exacerbates this issue.
* Overbearing CEO: his micromanagement, including screening Instagram posts, hampers efficiency.
* Lack of streamlining approval processes is curbing progress.
* Inconsistent management - frequent changes in rules, plans, deadlines, and budgets create confusion.
* Lack of centralized monitoring - despite efforts, the absence of a centralized system makes tracking progress challenging and transparency almost impossible.
* Restricted creativity - collaborative work occurs within tight boundaries, hindering innovation.
* Questionable promotions -promoting individuals without relevant experience to high positions impacted overall effectiveness.
* Diversity and Inclusion gap - celebratory emails alone don’t foster a truly inclusive workplace.
The company should actively promote diversity and create an inclusive environment.
* HR Challenges - the absence of an employee handbook, vague contracts, and undefined role descriptions pose difficulties to defend yourself in face of redundancies.
