Inconvénients
The CEO is probably the biggest problem at OT o CEO is the most intelligent person alive. He is CEO, CTO, CMO, head of HR, head of R&D, head of Product Management, EVP of Services, EVP of WW Sales, Chief of Political Activism. He knows everything and sets direction and messaging with weird acronyms, taglines and volumes of streams of consciousness about the company and social issues. He could fire the ELT and do just fine. o If the CEO is in the meeting, he makes the decisions (however asinine) and railroads everyone to agree. No idea is a good idea unless it comes from Mark. Or, if it’s a good idea he will claim it as his own. o Despite all of the talk about DE&I and setting a goal to elevate women, he goes after key leadership who happen to be women. He second-guesses and insults their work. I’ve seen it. Not sure if they are targeted because they are female or because they don’t immediately say “yes sir can I have another sir”. o Non-stop SJW nonsense. Not everyone agrees with you and a lot of it has no place at work In general o Micromanagement, micromanagement, micromanagement. No one trusts you for your expertise or knowledge on your subject or product area. I’ve been in the industry for many years and I am a Director. My manager starts or reworks my presentations completely. That has never happened to me before. o Analysis paralysis. Risk averse. They say they want to change and update to be a cloud company but many decisions they make contradict this and they go back to the old way. That’s why new people leave within the first 18 months.
