Senior leaders have a certain mindset:
- do not consider employees as anything but expendable underlings
- do not consider employees wellbeing or fair pay
- company culture must be extremely toxic
- do not care about the quality of products or services or innovation
- do not care about the overall company reputation or viability
- only thing that matters is increasing compensation of senior leadership -no matter the cost or consequence
- although overwhelming majority of revenue comes from US customers, the US employees do not matter whatsoever
- if you are based in Mexico or another developing country, you get career advancement in the short term
- almost a billion dollars must be spent on acquiring AI tools that will replace humans. Better if such procurement also grants kickbacks to senior leadership
- any remaining humans must be worked to death (ideally) or they must be fired for any reason of your choosing. No empathy allowed.
Anything else to add? Who are the worst leaders?
