Pine Gate Renewables CEO and leadership

Very casual work environment, unlimited PTO. plenty of happy hours, laid-back culture, and open-ended work feedback.

1. Middle management is very inexperienced, their titles are very inflated, they are extremely incompetent, and have no credentials to be Vice Presidents. You can become a senior manager or VP from entry-level roles in just a few years. Then with time, you can lobby the C-suite to get very experienced hires under you. Just incompetent. 2. Office and work culture is supremely toxic. The in-person crowd in Asheville meets in closed groups outside office hours, gossips a lot, and lobbies. They bring that closed group preference into work and box many people out without any valid reason. This leaves competent people out of meaningful work. 3. Many middle management people are very moody, immature, angry, and incompetent. Most of them don't deserve to be people managers because they don't have the right behavior, technical expertise, and emotional intelligence. Promotion is very arbitrary, and doesn't follow any result or experience-based metric- just lobbying and bias. Plenty of bias. 4. Internal transfers are very opaque, preference-based on race, gender, ethnicity, and politics based. Competent people are left out of meaningful roles. Plenty of bias. 5. Managers will protect their self-interest, take credit for their team's work, and leave their teams out of meaningful meetings, work, and projects. They are lying to the C-suite straight up. 6. Huge pay disparity. Females are paid less, then fired if they confront it. The incompetent middle management is milking the C-suite. 7. C-suite is not very involved in the day-to-day of the company work. They don’t have the expertise for technical and practical matters, and cannot see through the incompetence of the middle management. Middle management lies and gets promoted for failures. 8. Middle management is not able to give any meaningful constructive feedback, and employees cannot grow under them. 9. Absolutely no diversity. They keep speaking about DEI but zero action to add diversity in the work place.

Happy hours and free alcohol

Nothing

Drop your ego and see through the crap in the middle management

don't interview

Pto

Very young in age and experience. They don't have a strong discipline to hold the young management accountable
