Failed communication from management led to breakdown of trust

Pros

A team of excellent and interesting people with a heart, many side interests and a willingness to accept the downsides to preserve the organization. Space to experiment, unfortunately without backup from management. 4 day week. Great office spaces.

Cons

No willingness of management to translate the self-proclaimed interest in self-organization into any meaningful experiments and learning. This was followed by the inability of the top management to lead any initiative beyond conceptual stages, frequent and visible in-fighting and dysfunctional communication full of empty promises and inconsequent planning. The result was an acquisition by a large consultancy (de-facto bankruptcy) and dissolving of most of the team from before 2019. No chances to develop, an adequate salary, combined with an extreme difference in income between founders and even the topmost of the staff. HR not on the side of staff. No meaningful and visible portfolio work. A lot of public overselling of competencies in technology topics with little coordinated knowledge-creation.
