  • Poor use of company funds

    This podcast is created by a company that is distributing its funds from employee salaries to useless “tech advancements” like making a podcast with poor viewership and no real value to employees or the company. The CEO plays favorites among his employees, only sending a select few to (often unimportant) conferences that hold little value. He and his management staff consistently deny raises for hardworking employees who are struggling to pay basic expenses. He himself is an HR liability.
