    Inexperienced and delusional leadership

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Colleagues are friendly and the office is close to central station.

    Cons

    Leadership in this company is delusional and inexperienced. There is a lack of clear direction and strategic planning, with decisions being made impulsively and without proper consideration of the consequences. This lack of effective leadership has resulted in a disorganized and chaotic work environment, leaving employees feeling unhappy and undervalued. You should not expect to be hired as an expert, as the leadership often disregards input from knowledgeable staff and believes they know better. There appears to be a recurring pattern of laying off staff, without fully comprehending the significance of these individuals to the company, including their skills and tenure within the organization. Employees can feel secure in the company one day, only to be unexpectedly terminated the next day. I would not recommend this workplace.

    It could have been so good

    Pros

    The people: most colleagues are inspiring, kind, fun, and skilled people with a growth mindset and sense of purpose to do good in the world. (don't know how so many of them end up at a company run by this leadership.) The mission: DD has truly saved lives and helped countless people improve their health. Knowing my work plays a roll in the incredible success stories we get makes it very meaningfull. 5000kr/year wellness grant (friskvårdsbidrag). Used to be flexible with hybrid work, which helped me be more efficeint and organise my time to get my best focus. There were other nice perks (team dinners, sponsored courses, dinner when you work overtime, etc.) that are on hold but which might come back later, who knows? There's chances for fast advancement, depends on your role.

    Cons

    Delusional leadership that is incompetent and deaf, ignores expert advice and running the company into the ground because "innovation." I've heard them say they want to move fast and break things, like Mark Zuckerberg, but they don't seem to mind to break people, too. "Doctor mindset" of knowing what is good for people and assuming that everyone will want what you sell. because you're an expert (without validation and then changing the direction of the entire company). They used to offer paid overtime, and then switched to a normal 40 hours a week, without adjusting expectations of work. Many people are scared not to work extra (now unpaid) because they don't want to be a weak link. If you get promoted high enough, you are basicaly expected to work over time. If you aren't slitting your wrists under their noses, you become disposable. They don't have a collective bargaining agreement (kollektivavtal) and they are often on the line between legal and illegal, sometimes using scare tactics to pressure foreigners who don't know the Swedeish laws. This is not a normal company. No HR. It's a culture where the company is the most important thing to preserve, disconected somehow from the people who actualy make the company exist. A big number of great people have been quitting since summer 2022 because of frustration at leadership and toxic culture. Lack of strategy from leadership: for example, in a recent lay offs, they got rid of all the mothers (and noone else) in the office and it cut the only teams in the company that were actually earning money. They realized this after it was to late. But there was definitely a strategy and it had nothing to do with that they are mothers... Poor/nonexistant communication.

    Awful leadership

    Mar 21, 2023 - Anonymous Employee

    Business Outlook

    Pros

    Coworkers, but not in leadership!

    Cons

    The leadership has no clue where the company is going. After months (even years) of telling them that we where not ok, they find out (wait for it...) that we were almost broke! Even with that, they moved to an entire new office, nonsense. Their idea of expanding the company from 50 to 1000 and "more" was at least naive to say the least. They have no vision, no values, no strategy, basically they are reacting based on what they see. Plans? No thanks. We have raised our concerns on gender equity... "they were working on them". 100% male leadership.

    They are a closely-knit group working on something they genuinely believe in. Their mission is clear and they do their best to be a good work environment

    Pros

    Being able to own some of the company is available to all employees. Fast moving and interesting work. In general, very friendly and helpful colleagues who all work incredibly hard.

    Cons

    If you don’t fit the company’s vision you will be pushed out quickly. Passive aggressive behavior from management toward some staff they no longer fitted their standard.
