After three reorganizations in less than five years, I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that I ended up on the chopping block. Leadership promised stability but delivered more chaos. They preached transparency while making decisions behind closed doors. Morale is in the toilet and no one trusts the executives to turn things around.
The highly marketed Business Excellence group checks their boxes and claims success, leaving destruction in their wake for others to clean up. This isn’t excellence — it’s dysfunction masquerading as progress. Leaders are being placed in roles they have no business being in, proving once again that politics—not expertise—dictates who gets ahead. Meanwhile, executives fall for the pretty slides and checked-off boxes, completely disconnected from the reality of what is happening on the ground.
Honestly, I feel for the people still there—exhausted, disengaged, and running on fumes while leadership looks forward to “exciting times”. They can keep their lip service. I’m moving on, and I can only hope the ones left behind eventually get the leadership they deserve.
