Vantaggi
There are many great people in the trenches who are eminently capable of executing on strategy. The company has a history of developing or acquiring (in the case of Rhapsody and Gamehouse) interesting products and the company is in an interesting space. Perplexingly, the company offers great training programs for employee development, but does an extremely poor job of engaging employees in their new skillsets.
Svantaggi
From RobG on down, the senior leadership clearly does not respect the line managers or individual contributors at the company. The executive leadership is incapable of formulating and sticking with a coherent business or product strategy. company always reacts predictably when times get tough, with everyone but the execs suffering from poor decisions. execs too focused on hitting homers and miss the value of consistent simple performance.
