too much bloat, too many years of inflated performance ratings while doing mediocre work, too much product, too little innovation… it’s too much. For the remaining, it’s half time.. ask your self… does my work add value, if the honest answer isn’t a hard yes then it’s not too early to start looking .

Global tech here - surprised to not see anything in global tech yet. Most bloated org, can’t finish any projects in time, within budget.
I guess that’s what happens when you put finance people in charge of key innovation roles.
@1lft+1pX1UAlw Agreed. Though you know there’s some mid mgmt managing up on this as well don’t you?
@1lft+1pX1UAlw Everyone’s thinking it, thank you for saying it. Now who’s gonna tell TC?
Funny cause my work added a ton of value which I can substantiate with metrics and testimonials and I still got the ax.
I guarantee the only bloat effecting your life is your own ego
Too much yes man bullsh-t with no real decisions! Leaders all try and sell to each other instead of sitting down and aligning on critical business decisions with tangible outcomes! They don’t know how to empower their teams because they don’t know how to coach and develop talent and their egos are so big they want to control everything and hoard work to empire build, while pointing the finger at everyone else when sh-t doesn’t prove an ROI. They refuse to listen to anyone who asks critical questions. If you do, they start excluding you from the party! Zero accountability. I know we are a marketing company but we can’t be ALL FLUFF and no fire!
@1lft+1pX1UAlw Instead they just threw their teams under the bus to buy themselves more time.
The department heads.....like the big one leading the NSRL and NXT Apparel are the ones that need to go. Leadership is lacking
Thanks JD, hope your new strategy works. You’re pi----g off a ton of people along the way. During a critical time. Good luck with your s-xual harassers, b-ms, and d-mb jocks.
Word is there will be more cuts on the global brand marketing team tomorrow
OP - Thank you for your intelligent take on this. We were all waiting for you to add your perspective here.
