Be transparent with your employees. If you're not, we will not be transparent with you.
We have significantly less benefits than other companies/start ups and can't hire/retain talent because of it.
Company needs to facilitate communication between teams. CEO values "heads down" work and this propagates company-wide because of it. Lack of communication has cost us millions of dollars and employee firing.
CEO doesn't care about employees; as long as the minimum viable product can live on, he willl not hesitate to fire loyal, hard-working individuals. There's a remote executive team that is extremely out of touch with the teams they are in charge of.
