Pros

Nothing at all. Toxic positivity.

Cons

Someone should seriously look in to the customer experience leadership team in Melbourne. Maybe give them a knowledge test and see who passes. I know 2 managers should be able to, but with the other 2 I'm not sure about 1, but I can 2000% sure that the one team leads who's name starts with a ' H' will fail. She doesn't know anything. Doesn't do any work, all I have seen is she doing online shopping or playing worddle or she waste time at meetings. She was an absolute bully !!! She micro manages. I think. She favours people who suck to her, and bullies the rest until they do.

Pros

Xero has a great product and a lot of very passionate employees who work very hard for their customers.

Cons

The executive leadership at Xero is creating a toxic, backstabbing culture that promotes yes-men at the expense of honest dialogue. It's impossible to make decisions at the company, and multiple rounds of layoffs are leaving all employees shell shocked and fearful. Marketing teams are under-resourced while more demands are constantly being placed on teams to do more. When constraints are communicated, employees are blamed for them, rather that listened to. Multiple colleagues have said the same thing. Additionally, management has instituted a 'rank and yank' policy where everyone is graded on a forced curve, where the bottom quarter are immediately put on a PIP.
