This company is growing quickly, but that growth hasn’t translated into better support for the employees doing the work. Teams are stretched thin, workloads feel unsustainable, and there’s little follow through from leadership when burnout or staffing concerns are raised. Employee turnover is high. Instead of a collaborative or solution focused environment, blame and gossip at the leadership level seem to be normalized, which takes a real toll on morale. At one point, concerns about employee treatment in the Walnut Creek office were shared with ownership, but unfortunately no meaningful changes followed. Many of the same issues continue today, particularly in how director level leadership shows up and communicates. With stronger leadership training, clearer communication, and more accountability specifically for the managing director and director of operations, this could be a very different workplace. Until that happens, it’s hard to recommend this company as a place to build a healthy, long term career.
