Demanding culture and lack of transparency

Pros

- Great passionate, and smart people - Cool company to work for with a global presence

Cons

- The company and the CEO demands 200% from everyone, openly tells us in all hands that "meeting expectations" in performance reviews is not good enough, has openly said many times "this company is not for everyone, and you're welcome to leave and that's ok" - Lack of transparency, people just disappear with no rhyme or reason - Management only looks at you if you make the most noise or talk the most in meetings, the people that actually do the work get overlooked for promotion and recognition, while others that are not directly involved are the ones that get all the credit - Got rid of random middle managers for the sake of speed and process with 0 forethought and insight into how that impacts teams - Nepotism and "hiring friends" is rampant, unqualified individuals being placed in leadership positions, resulting in headless chicken directions
