Innovative technology hindered by poor leadership and strategy - Senior Manager Sibel Health Employee Review

-Sibel's got an innovative product in a highly regulated industry, which can be frustrating (e.g. long development timelines, long sales cycles), but ultimately rewarding as the path to commercialization provides exposure to a wide range of niche areas in the pharma / med device industry -Tons of opportunity for professional growth. -Team is full of really smart, capable, hard working people

-It's a start up, so there's too much work for too few people. But if you embrace it, you'll thrive.

There's a lot to like here — many talented colleagues, genuine care across teams, and HR making a genuine effort to engage with employees and actually respond to their needs. When people are empowered to solve problems together, they do.

The challenge is at the top. CEO and CTO leadership have been consistently difficult to navigate. There's a pattern that's hard to ignore: the best collaboration happens when senior leadership steps back or responds to a crisis rather than driving the work. That says something important. Trust has eroded over time — not from one big moment, but from a slow accumulation of promises that didn't land, communication gaps, questionable behavior, and a disconnect between what's said in company-wide meetings and what people experience day to day. Employees want to believe in the direction. Many of us came here because of Sibel's mission. But belief has to be earned through behavior, not just messaging.
