RealWear Reviews

The management team outside engineering somehow joined after the product was built apparently to bring it to market. These are 2 different worlds on different ends of the skill and experience spectrum. Management team outside engineering has very little experience in taking products to commercial market, is extremely hierarchical, and basically takes no feedback. Any questioning is met extremely harshly, generally with termination. It's an extreme of management's "way or the highway". There are very unorthodox internal structures with product mgt focused on controlling most corp functions including sales and partnering. There has been signficant staff attrition as a consequence due to firings and resignations below the "exec team". This is extreme even for startups. The sales force worldwide are generally contract employees. Morale is very low outside the exec team. Ultimately this is a direct reflection of the CEO who's main experience is military and defense contracting.

The CEO is a narcissist, who behaves like a petulant child. He throws temper-tantrums when anyone disagrees with him. So experienced people leave, and he is left with only inexperienced sycophants, exactly what he wants. He is also not honest with employees, customers, or potential investors, telling each just what he thinks they might want to hear, regardless of how far-fetched.
