The owner strives to improve the business to the point of disregarding contradictory advice. He dramatically changed the roles of half of the executive team without concrete expectations for what those new roles would be or how performance would be measured, and then laid off those employees after only a few months when company performance did not drastically improve. (The company was not performing poorly at the time, just below where the owner wanted it.) Those layoffs were without warning and resulted in my own workload being doubled at year-end. The owner expected normal performance deadlines immediately even though I repeatedly said the transition would need time. The owner also regularly directed me away from tasks that would get the new work distribution under control and towards projects to further change organizational processes. My option to work remotely was taken away, further hampering my performance. In the end, I was also terminated less than three months after the others. The current job listing presents it as a remote position, a final slap in the face.
