I had 6 different direct reports in about 3 years. I had at least 7 different comp plans over that period (e.g. one quarter I earned a 4-figure quarterly bonus at roughly 200% to quota). Tough to feel comfortable or know what to expect in a role when your boss and your compensation changes every 6 months.
C level employees typically don’t last more than a year or so either. Poor management over the years and constant turnover leads to chaos and paranoia. Everyone can agree on the company’s“northstar goals” but if management is in constant flux, it’s impossible to reach a consensus on how to actually achieve it.
Recently, I raised some concerns with my boss to HR and they were ignored. As in, the HR representative didn’t attempt to facilitate a workable resolution because they kept my testimony secret. Historically, employees who have opinions get fired.
