Flexibility, great people, pay, benefit, and lunch.

They hire a lot of middle management.

- Systemic dysfunction impacting execution and employee wellbeing - Shifting priorities without alignment, unclear expectations, and diffuse accountability leading to imbalanced workloads and team friction - Gap between stated values and day-to-day decision-making under pressure - Status-driven culture that promotes internal positioning instead of shared goals - Emphasis on urgency over sustainable processes and long-term strategy
