There are some gems at the glassdoor site referred to in the article.
It is true, CTO did make whole team of people redundant on New Years Eve via voicemail - maybe 'how to' book on leadership taught him redundancy procedure.
Led by a truly odious individual, this attitude is prevalent throughout the company. Senior management are relics of the 80's living off their success in the last dotcom boom (and bust), who believe the film 'Wall Street' is a training manual for management, business practices and team leadership.
I noticed, though, that clicking through to the full reviews page, the most recent are glowing ones from Powa's head of development and head of sales ;)

These were via https://www.glassdoor.com/Reviews/Employee-Review-Powa-Techn... - looks like a signup would be necessary to get the full reviews.
