Supportive colleagues overshadowed by toxic leadership

Pros

Colleagues who are supportive and knowledgeable

Cons

Executive suite is so preoccupied with their own egos that they cannot effectively implement an organizational structure that is consistent, clear or manageable. This is why they are incapable of retaining talent. CEO Moria Weir is a toxic “leader” and poorly represents the organization.

Pros

Very nice people. Kind at heart at all levels of the organization.. Lots of potential due to name recognition.

Cons

No strategic direction. Leading with heart instead of logic. I would be hesitant to join if you want to help reshape the organization
