Well-paying job but chaotic leadership and lack of innovation

R&d engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company pays well and ultimately what you are working on is potentially lifesaving

Cons

Management resets continuously causing chaos with the people doing the work. Resets actually achieve nothing with no SMART goal ever set on an executive. Nothing innovative produced by company due to indecision

Terrible leadership

Senior finance manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Not many. The people below director level care and are good at what they do.

Cons

Too many to list. Upper management (Martha and his direct reports) are horrendous. More concerned about woke, liberal issues, and making quotas than they are with running a good company. Hugo is delayed another year but look we are waving a Pride flag.
