It's a shame to see Glassdoor implode, because it actually serves an important social function as a public repository of mismanagement stories, as told by employees. In a previous company, we outsourced some work to a content marketing firm, and what we got back was so abysmal that I felt compelled to investigate (as Pam Poovey says on Archer, "it's like sour milk. You just gotta take a whiff"). On Glassdoor we found answers: > As many other reviews have pointed out, [agency] is currently in a death spiral. Morale is extremely low. Burnout is the norm. Employees have been leaving in droves. And customer churn is at an all-time high. The root cause for all of the above? An incompetent and inexperienced leadership team > The only way to save this sinking ship is to fire the entire leadership team and start over > an absolute textbook of mismanagement – in my time the company went from being in a position of imperious advantage through the COVID period to being in an absolute death spiral now. The company is awash in cynicism at every level. Shocking rates of pay compared to market averages. No-clue leadership team rinsing the company for massive salaries and reciting Monty Python bits during All-Hands despite catastrophic staff churn and client churn RIP for a piece of the old internet where people spilled the beans like we used to on Xanga
