Vantaggi
Shiny from the outside and on the top surface layers.
Svantaggi
Confirming others on the nepotism that runs deep. You have to be with the in-crowd to have a successful career. When people figure this out, it changes how they behave, projects they take on, and who they befriend. Many have been there (and only there) for so long, they are completely blinded (or in denial) and it sustains the distrustful and toxic environment. Narcissism, gaslighting, politics, and favoritism that’s longstandingly seeped into the culture, unfortunately preserved by complacent leaders. Process overload from inept and over hired PMO to compensate for insufficient number of experienced product managers. CEO can’t help but talk down competitors. Off the charts hubris in company DNA. Wasn’t much to be inspired by after seeing the best product and design people leave one after another. Unable to sustain talent, while mediocrity thrives and continues to make its way to the top. The good ones leave while narcissism and nepotism continues to fester from the top down across all departments.
