Company Rant

CEO Status driven, low confident CEO who thinks that a CEO should dress like a movie CEO aka wearing suits all the time and thinks that watching sports makes you cool. Super micro-manager. This idiot gifted a basketball to CPO on CPO's 5th work anniversary. Will make random suggestions to the product team based on absolute random assumptions. This guy has more chances of death by confirmation bias than anything else in the world. Lack of clarity and vision for the company. Low trust in people who he works with.

COO I saw her only once in the office since I joined the company in my 14 months of tenure, people say she is working from home but all the employees are forced to come to the office and work.

CPO This guy will never say no to any product/feature requirement and commit an optimistic timeline of delivery without thinking or syncing with the team internally. Due to him I lost respect for MBA turned managers who think they can do it all. Will never accept he was wrong or take one for the team. Will shit on others to retain you. Will make team members fight among themselves. Will say that you are the owner of the product/project/task/charter given to you but will make sure to overturn decisions made independently by you. This guy always assumes that he is right without thinking through. He does not even understand what all problems we face at the layer. Has world class expectations but with peanut salary. This douche bag stole my ideas and presented it to his ideas. Had to forcefully schedule 1-1's with him to get feedback on my performance, that too was very generic and had a few points where I made mistakes but no actionable point of how that area can be improved. At CPO level I expect you to have basic product design sense and when I describe the screen roughly you should be able to imagine it but this A-hole will always stress on a proper product design with all the color and all and not even a wireframe.

Is COO, moonlighting?

COO is the wife of CEO, hence I don't think she'd be moonlighting.

Name of the company?

Grapevine is there for a reason so that names can be anonymous but the same needn't be for companies names 😂

COO to those slogging in office:

'Mera office me kya kaam.

Hum aapke dil me rehte hai.

Hum aapke dil me rehte hai.'

The CEO called me a terrible PM 🤡

Here is an incident that happened to me at my old startup. This literally gave me a wake-up call that shattered my "PM is mini-CEO" idea that all my mentors had told me about.
