Flexible work approach (location/ schedule)

Unsustainable business model - this company has no chance of surviving due to a) not having a real "one company" business model and strategy and b) the mindset of it's leaders and workers (culture). They claim to be an AI company but do not be fooled - this is a conservative, messy, people-heavy place. Almost everyone is maxed out in terms of workload (AI tech teams have a lighter load because of the new focus, hence have better staffing and pay) Key issues: 1. No strategy as a single company - this is not one organization rather about 4-5 bigger companies which in turn combine of dozens of smaller units. The idea of integration was unheard of until recently and the CEO failed miserably when he tried to achieve that (now gone) 2. Leadership - the Executive Leadership team do not walk the talk - power struggles within the team are the norm, they say they will drive change but most often long projects just fall apart. Most do not listen and are more keen on telling than listening. 2-3 of them may have strategic thinking capability but most are conservative and slow. 3. The BIG reason RWS fails is how they treat people. HR is a joke in this company they have no say in anything spend their time pretending to be nice until they can fire you. No salary increases paid out for more than 2 years, no bonsues paid for several years, a lot of inequity in job levels, pay, promotion criteria, you name it. Regular "restructuring" is the norm at the turn of each Fiscal Year - this is usually when budget numbers don't add up so Finance impose a certain % terminations, then managers are given about a month to decide who gets axed so a lot of poor decisions are made due to time constraints, which makes the operation even more inefficient. The orgnization is pushed to it's limit with no end in sight.
