Svantaggi
I left UKG on good terms, but didn't really say what needed to be said. I think that the first thing to consider is that there is a lot of nepotism within the organization. If you don't have family connections or are a favorite it will be challenging to advance even if you are a good performer. I think it is strange they often promote not based on performance and professionalism, but on other factors which rubbed me the wrong way. With the merger, challenges and changes are to be expected, but I think treating everyone equally is something that shouldn't really waiver. Lastly, it seemed like any projects we worked on were only explained to certain people which was weird considering I am very proactive and have been successful in every role I have had. There were multiple projects that I was unaware of the criteria, and there was only a quick apology that I "wasn't on that email" or that "I forgot to bring that up in our meeting." It didn't seem genuine and felt like I was trying to get a seat at the popular kids table or something which didn't feel right to me.
