Svantaggi
athletes are given preferential treatement. For example, someone was promoted to a job they were not qualified for over someone who had the necessary experience, simply because the unqualified person was an avid runner and the qualified person was not an athlete. job evaluations very subjective, management too busy to real know what's going on and bases things on superficial understanding. People who manage up well get away with talking big but not contributing anything tangible, while others are held behind the scenes and do all the dirty work and get little credit. difficult to make things happen, need everyone's buy in, managers shoot down ideas that are not their own to avoid making it look like people beneath them have better ideas than them. VP of Ecommerce has no sense of reality. Poor communicator, horrible people skills, nobody wants to work for him. Doesn't understand Ecommerce and barks at people to chase down his scrambled and ill advised thoughts that incoherently do not connect to a strategy.
