Great product that is sullied by poor leadership - Anonymous Navan Employee Review

Culture and morale seem to have really gone downhill this year. Employees live in fear, other reviews are right about good employees getting fired or being made examples out of. Seems like leadership is concerned about losing their jobs and making themselves look as good as possible so everything else is expendable. Culture of intimidation rules. HR team generally unhelpful and inept, more of a propaganda machine to give the illusion that feedback is heard and taken seriously. CEO either does not care about the deteriorating culture or otherwise is likely being told that “everything is fine”. HR refuses to solve issues, they blame “growing pains” and “rapid growth” and seem more concerned with image. Pay attention to who is writing the positive reviews. Mostly the Marketing team, senior leaders and HR team. Campaigning us to write our positive reviews on Glassdoor and LinkedIn postings to drown out naysayers and sure that it will continue. Like others say, success to be had if one is playing the political game.
