Pros
- Some of the kindest, most talented people are working at functional levels
- Former CEO Larry led with a humility, wisdom, and openness that permeated the culture
- A compelling mission with experienced partners in the field
- A feeling of family and safety, which can be abused (see below)
Cons
- New CEO hired people who may not be in it for the right reasons; nepotism hires.
- Some toxic leaders in upper and middle management value image above growth. Sadly, these leaders cause the org harm and undermine the mission.
- Ineffective HR department; often hard to get in contact with to resolve issues.
