•High level of micro managing that I have never before witnessed or experienced
•A very public system of feedback that came across as harsh from my perspective to highlight shortcomings and issues in public slack channels of individual team members
•Diversity of thought didn't seem to be valued. From my perspective, different ways of thinking were not valued, and hiring a homogenous group of people seemed to be more of a priority to preserve the culture.
•Management could benefit from more training around communication, interpersonal skills and conflict resolution.
•Moving targets for success, metrics for success / failure felt subjective to the manager, with little strategic framework which, from my perspective, introduced bias and impulse into employee evaluations, making it difficult to determine if you were doing a good job or bad job.
•Disproportionate assigning of unpaid social labour by gender, including expectation to book team lunch reservations, outings and even the annual company wide offsite without consultation or meaningful benefits.
•Poor change management, multiple mass firings / hirings during my tenure, sudden role changes and role change reversals that point to lack of proper planning and change agility.
