Svantaggi
Horrible backstabbing to get ahead. It is who you know not what you know. Management may set a directive and even if you advise that it is wrong they will use you as a scape goat if it goes bad. I have never been at a company with so many people who knew so little about a subject matter they considered themselves experts on. Managers and Directors will take your ideas and present to management as their own. This may be an unpopular statement, but they have a Women's Innovation Network only to appease the women so they think they are actually being listened to and promoted. Different company since Mr. Shaw left. The new regime forces early retirement on many that are very valuable employees. Use this company for training, but take your career some where else to be appreciated. Good bonuses if you are in the good ol boy click, if not you will watch them build houses and vacation homes as you struggle to get ahead.
