-Someone in leadership doesn't understand major parts of the operation, is inappropriate with female team members, doesn't have a firm grasp on how long initiatives take to plan and pull off. -Various people in leadership carry on inappropriate relationships with team members. -There's an atmosphere of harassment, especially toward female team members. -Raises are based on title and location—if you don't consistently promote toward a new title, your salary ceiling is based on what people in San Diego with your same title make, regardless of your value to the company. -The PTO policy is extremely limited. Sick days are not separated and are rolled right into PTO. This has the effect of people coming to the office sick, so everyone gets sick for weeks on end, OR, people 'work from home' at an extremely diminished capacity because they're not willing to cough up a PTO day to rest. Management basically understands all of this and yet doesn't do anything about it because they think the generous holiday schedule makes up for it. -The HR department is difficult for women to work with. -On Monday morning the company has an all-hands roadmap meeting that's excruciating to sit through. Every department head—and sometimes multiple people in the same department—give updates on what they're doing for the benefit of the whole team. The problem is, most of the team doesn't understand what other departments are doing at a granular level, so you're forced to give up 20-45 minutes of your time to nodding along.
