What do people at Prime care technologies think about the CEO? What do they do well and what can they improve?

Our CEO is well respected for good reason. He has a wonderful vision for how we should go about our business. He has started to put the right people in place to accomplish our organizational goals. I would like to see him deviate from his hard "lean labor" approach as it is stretching some of us really thin and standing in the way of progress.

He insists on being the smartest man in the room. Few instances exist of him taking someone else's suggestion over his own. Treats staff horribly. No longer allowed to communicate with departing staff as those interactions turn negative and confrontational. I've never worked for a worse executive.

the ceo protects him and his. they micromanage and cheap their way around everything. including cheaping out on their employees. on the road benefits are literally half of my new employers. HALF.

I found Jim to be honest and fair. He is very blunt and sometimes that is interpreted as being hostile.
