Pros
This company has a lot of great things going for it. It’s diverse, truly international, entrepreneurial, and has committed people. Almost everywhere you look there is a go-getter. Business information is transparent and accessible, you have data on what you are doing and why, unfortunately the real business is not what drives the company, it’s the battle at the top.
Cons
There is an unresolved power struggle at the top between the two leading figures. Both are bright and capable, but both are at heart extremely insecure, so they make it their mission to try to prove the opposite and squander a tremendous amount of talent, time and money doing it. How people relate to each other at the top is how people will deal with each other in the entire organization, and two people that despise each other so deeply cannot cause anything other than a toxic work environment. They believe they drive the results, but the reality is both have little idea of what their business is really like, and we’re never in the front lines, the reality is the business happens despite their leadership, not because of it.
