Needs to change ... and quickly

Pros

- Some smart people - App strong - Potential for a strong underlying business

Cons

- Poor HR and Finance (2 CFOs left within last 12 months) functions due to no experience based leadership ever being in place - Little middle management - Senior management team lack experience - A lot of people with Ivy League CV’s but very limited experience who think they know it all - Many Department and Functional Heads missing or under qualified - Performance review process (4 times a year) used as a way to identify people to fire – not a two-way process where weaknesses can be worked on - Constant talk about A players – but no definition of that other than being willing to work 14 hrs a day 7 days a week and do what you are told – long hours does not mean more productivity - Employees are viewed as a commodity – one company objective is to exit underperformers (not PIP, assist or mentor – underperformance is <50% - with average performance not much higher) - Overall strategy lacking hence objectives change constantly and are solely driven by CEO – also results in multiple people working on the same problem in isolation - Total micromanagement from top down (that is by design), thousands of KPIs each quarter – why employ senior people and then tell them how to do their job.
