Being able to work remotely

Management is an absolute nightmare. They hire you but don’t trust your expertise. They hire random externals and agencies that get recommended by investors while firing current employees. They expect you to work overtime without any compensation. They have zero respect for your time. They change strategy weekly if they don’t see uplifts in performance. The CEO’s only goals is to be in the 1% and send threatening emails disguised as “motivation”. If you’re young expect to be spoken to in a very demeaning way. Actual things I was told: - We don’t give positive feedback because that’s the culture of the company; - You can’t expect that 8 hours a day is enough to do everything (while not paying for overtime); - I don’t care about your calendar; - I worked for a company for 8 months without getting paid because people were depending on me (from management, it wasn’t his company, he was somehow trying to make me accept that you have to make “sacrifices”); - Sometimes you have to let go of some of your star players if they don’t align with your new strategy (from the CEO in a company wide email).

Experience at a startup level, remote work

Management issues; No proper guidance from management team; high expectations with bare resources
