The people that came in during this growth phase, half of them are literally useless. Still in case of production issues/releases, company relies on handful of people to step up and do the work, then what's the use of hiring so many people.
With personal experience the leaders/coaches that India team has, is absolutely of no use. Its more of namesake manager/coach for approvals, they don't understand the product/technology or even take effort to do so.
People are also hired based on bias, you can literally group people by previous company they have worked and its like 3-4 companies they come from.
Company somehow doesn't believe in firing/getting-rid of under-performers they continue to stick in top level position and bring the team morale down. It would be ok, if they don't contribute at-least other people can work but these people become bottleneck and least cooperative in solving problems.
Product Management/Engineering team continues to suffer, Its not like the CTO/CPO don't know about it, but still no actions are taken.Few of them are excellent example of "Leadership by Absence".
