- Senior management leads with emotions rather than with facts. Proactiveness is virtually non-existent. Rather than anticipating and addressing issues before they arise, Exo is in a perpetual state of reaction, putting out fires instead of preventing them. This hampers efficiency and puts employees in a constant state of chaos and stress. - Constructive feedback is treated as a personal attack rather than an opportunity for improvement. Senior management fails to provide a safe environment for open communication. Any attempts to express concerns or suggestions are met with defensiveness. - Rather than empowering employees, micromanagement runs rampant. It diminishes any sense of autonomy. - Senior management has little-to-no boundaries when it comes to pursuing profit. They are dishonest with both employees and clients, willing to compromise integrity to maximize financial gain. - Due to cost-cutting measures arising from poor financial foresight by senior management, all employee "benefits" have been stripped. - Senior management will say/do anything to protect their image rather than be transparent about any major changes within the company.
