Would you accept a role when there are a lot of bad reviews on Glassdoor about poor senior leadership with a lack of transparency?

As a product marketer would that affect me?

No, company culture is an important decision factor for me. You will definitely suffer in any product function role with poor leadership and poor transparency. One or two bad reviews might be based on subjective views but when there are a lot of people saying the same thing, there has got to be some truth to it.

Learn from my mistakes. Don't work there. Bad leadership can absolutely set you up for failure and even set your career back due to the psychological torment they can and most probably will put your through.

I would, I feel like people only post on there to complain. The happy people don’t care to leave reviews…
