Delusional Leadership is Making It Toxic to Work Here - Avis employé Software Engineer RV LIFE

The company offers generous unlimited paid time off and strongly supports flex time. There is a clear “get your work done” mindset rather than a rigid focus on when you work. The benefits are strong for a company of this size, including health and life insurance, 401k options, legal assistance, and more. The company generally tries to do right by both employees and customers. Remote employees have frequent opportunities to travel, meet teammates in person, and attend fully covered company gatherings. These trips usually include a good mix of work, team building, and downtime. Employees are trusted to manage their own work without unnecessary micromanagement. There is a strong sense of ownership, and people are given room to solve problems in the way they think is best. Leadership is accessible, transparent, and willing to listen. Employees have meaningful visibility into company direction and decision-making. The culture is collaborative and low-drama. People are helpful, approachable, and focused on getting work done rather than protecting turf. The company genuinely cares about the communities it serves, with a strong focus on building useful products and maintaining positive customer relationships. There are also regular no-cost training opportunities that help employees grow professionally.

I'm having a hard time coming up with any to be honest. I suppose the only one I can think of is that sometimes, the company will hold on to some of the employees longer than they should after they have demonstrated that they are not really up to the job.

Historically, the company placed a strong emphasis on work-life balance and employee well-being. The culture was generally collaborative, and teams worked well together despite occasional differences in opinion. There was also a willingness to explore new ideas and approaches, with a continued focus on product development and improvement.

As the company evolved, some employees felt the culture became more focused on identifying responsibility when issues arose rather than on problem-solving. There was also a perception that flexibility around illness and personal time decreased. Increased management oversight and involvement in day-to-day work may not appeal to employees who prefer a higher degree of autonomy.
