This has become a huge problem for me having just recently joined and I want others to know and be cautious - 100% of leadership here are men. There are no women at the top and very few front-line managers are women. Recently, they hired a male CMO and demoted the female Head of Marketing. This company keeps getting more and more male-dominated and obviously does not care about diversity.

Last 9 months or so have been a stark contrast in the company's approach. The engineering culture started to deteriorate, affecting the overall work environment. It seemed that the ELT lacked a clear vision, and maybe this lack of direction trickled down to the engineering department. It became evident that there was a fragile nature within the ELT (who also keep changing every once in a while), with little emphasis on addressing real problems and more focus on unknown agendas. The SVP of engineering, despite showing up for team meetings has approach of mostly about turning a blind eye to the real problems and obsessing over his own ideas that keep changing in every meeting. In moments of crisis or unexpected situations, his frustration is always visible, leading to a blame-oriented culture that only hindered progress. In times of crisis instead of being calm there have been many instances where he has been just berating the team to not have to own his own responsibility; such instances have happened in outage calls as well. It is a toxic environment where team members have started feeling unsafe and scapegoated due to certain leaders instead of cared and empowered. A comfortable lie is becoming easier than a difficult truth is a state of affairs because if you tell them the truth you become the problem. The focus is just execution without understanding the problem or long term vision (regardless of the message you would receive).
