Toxic Leadership, Horrible Culture

Manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

PMI's strengths are in its brand and its community. There are a lot of smart people who work here and believe in the mission.

Cons

Despite the potential for greatness within this company, progress is hindered by a leadership team that consistently fails to listen to its employees and instead bullies them into following orders. Only one person has the ideas, and only one person makes the decisions in this company and revisits them regularly to change his mind and reset direction....the rest of the c-suite are simply consultants who say yes. Morale has plummeted to unprecedented depths, leaving employees feeling undervalued and disenfranchised. This pervasive sense of dissatisfaction isn't just a matter of personal grievances; it's a significant barrier to the advancement of our products, our community, and the success of our mission.

Project Management Institute Response

We agree that our community and people are what make PMI special, and we’re committed to ensuring a healthy and supportive work environment for all our employees. Current and past employees are encouraged to provide more details about their experience with Global Talent.
