League is woke and dysfunctional

Director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business outlook

Pros

For a traditionally patriotic sport, the league feels culturally conflicted and increasingly invisible. It has supported initiatives like a Palestinian hockey team with little transparency, while tolerating questionable internal behavior from leadership. The league is essentially bulletproof and would likely grow regardless, driven by country-based rivalries. You could cut half the organization and it probably wouldn’t impact the product. Even with the Olympics, they still struggle to capitalize. It’s not a particularly fun place to work in or with.

Cons

see above. It's a big name but that's all.

Cool perks, youthful office and environment

Stiff, corporate, red tape, no autonomy to make decisions, only good if you're senior and been there 15 years
