Business Outlook

Pros

Most people are great professionals

Cons

Top management is short-term driven, they stab each other's back all the time, do not have a clear vision nor a true interest to do things right nor the right thing. The current CEO and some of his recent hirings are only building their own career and do not care about this company's long term future.

A business that prioritises external consultant services & external assets

Digital manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some colleagues who really care, a human value not shared at n+1, n+2 and by HR for what I experienced.

Cons

The words not aligned on behaviors, no human values from leaders. A structure that repeatedly ended work contracts w/o respecting the French code: HR tried to make economy on my back, and internal illegal practice. The bad and negative judgements inside the department I was were insane and kind of daily routine.
