Toxic Company Culture: There’s a reason why many legacy employees are leaving or being let go. What used to be a collaborative, supportive environment where you could count on your colleagues and leaders has transformed into a cutthroat, "every person for themselves" mentality.
Lack of True Diversity and Inclusion: Cielo prides itself on ED&I initiatives, but the executive team remains homogenous, and many previous male executives have exited. Despite surface-level initiatives, real change doesn’t seem to be happening at the leadership level.
Sales-Obsessed, Delivery Neglected: The company has shifted its focus so heavily to sales that the quality of service and product delivery has significantly declined. What used to feel like delivering a Louis Vuitton handbag now feels more like selling a cheap knockoff.
External Leadership & Repeated Mistakes: There’s a constant influx of external hires who bring in the same ideas and mistakes as the previous leader in role so it's a vicious, never-ending cycle. When employees try to suggest alternatives or improvements, especially when it's their client team's experience, it's often discouraged or outright frowned upon and you become difficult to work with. There’s a lot of lip service about innovation, but little action behind it or is sold and little thought was gone into how it would be delivered leading to unhappy clients.
Toxic Work-Life Balance: Expect to grind constantly, often at the expense of your personal life and well-being. The pressure is immense, and the constant worry about layoffs due to "market conditions" is mentally exhausting. There’s no stability, and no one seems safe from being on the chopping block.
