Get rid of the good employee with experience just to make more money in the pocket of the CEO

Senior software developer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good if you don't mind getting fired by a CEO for which money is the only value.

Cons

Be happy to still have a job, the more experience you get with them the closer you are to the door, no matter how experienced and dedicated you are. All that matter in this company is money in the pocket in the CEO.

Business Outlook

Pros

Culture code is great. Good to see some departments still practicing employees to be themselves, and express their concerns out, for the betterment of the departments. Do not lose this.

Cons

Recent hiring of sales leaders in Singapore are appalling. Self-absorbed and highly toxic to the current culture, insecure, primitive(or non-existent) leadership style, selfish, highly concerned about useless matters, and only want to ruin the existing sales teams of their otherwise excellent camaraderie by bringing in more of their "own friends and enablers in" just because they do not understand the CAD business and "want to do things their way". Severely need to revamp their hiring processes of such leaders and such sales people, before they start to lose more of the already existing good people.
