Disgruntled former CLEO staffers reveal working at the magazine in its last year was ‘hell’
The Daily Telegraph
This is a familiar story regarding mismanagement of an Australian company/business from overseas management who have no idea. I know of at least two other companies who have been in similar turmoil in recent years, following foreign management stepping into companies where they do not understand the Australian landscape or people. The results in those cases have been that the companies are in worse shape and have lost market share.
“The team was so mismanaged, directionless and all teams had massive infighting,” one source claimed. “(They) were constantly aggro and everyone was depressed. It was such an insecure atmosphere, everyone was just so scared about losing their jobs.”
