Killer of Desire - Recensione dipendente - Product Manager presso Under Armour

Time suck. Meetings to talk about meetings. It is not uncommon to have 6 hours of meetings on any given calendar day. The meeting mentality is so ingrained in the corporate culture, that people calendar friendly touch-bases. Nothing is spontaneous; It shows in the lack of creativity. There is so much incompetence up and down the “leadership” ladder – each more power-hungry and selfish than the next. Because the lack of leadership starts at the very top with Kevin Plank, it is systemic, and toxic. There are no shared successes – because the company is built on a “look at me and what I have done” foundation, there is little incentive to truly create good teams and succeed together. There is no trust anywhere. Upward mobility is virtually nonexistent. The only chance of success is to escape – but, if you are in a creation department, there is a non-compete clause, which is very much enforced. Human Resources – as a department - is comical in its ineptitude. Rocking the boat is frowned upon, and asking questions is actively discouraged. It is a completely toxic working environment.
