Great Company- Bad Politics - Recensione dipendente - Engineer presso MTSI

Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I doubt you are the only person having the same thoughts. According to a recent Harvard Business Review article about 25% of people had experienced similar challenges during the last campaign cycle. I imagine it hasn't improved much since. (ref: https://hbr.org/2017/03/navigating-political-talk-at-work) . I have experienced similar frustrations at family events. I think we'd all agree that at work we should talk the business at hand, sports, what we're doing this weekend, but not politics. Kind of like people shouldn't talk politics at a bar, unless they're impersonating characters from the 1700's. If you have tried to curb co-worker's talk by discouraging it in a lighthearted, non-partisan way, I'd recommend you talk with your supervisor, someone in HR, or submit a note to our anonymous ethics portal. In a small team it can be a challenge. In the meantime, I'll recommend we encourage our co-workers to leave politics at the door for everyone's sanity. The company has important work to do and missions to support. Political distractions don't help.
