Unfortunately despite all the great strategy surrounding the business, the people management is absolutely terrible which I suspect will have long term negative consequences. There is little to no structure on how someone can grow which puts your fate completely in the hands of your manager or manager's manager. Obviously in any company they will always have a very strong influence in your career, but the lack of structure provides you with no safety net in case you happen to land on a terrible team. There is little to no training when you start in the company, but you are expected to work your butt off and get results. It is not uncommon that managers will say that you should spend time with your families, but give you so much work that makes it almost impossible. Additionally there is little room for errors, even if you have had years of recognized achievements, a couple of months of bad luck and your thrown to the dogs. I do have to clarify it is not like this in all departments. There are pockets of good people, but overall the senior leadership simply does not focus on their employees as much as they could/should.

Multiple projects mislead by mid to upper level management who had no idea what they wanted. Really guys, can you waste anymore of my time on such a simple project? Upper management caving to whims of executive management during project reviews - upper management would say one thing during a team review and do a complete 360 during executive reviews. A dry, sterile work environment…not a lot of happy folks to deal with on a daily basis. A fair number of personality challenged individuals. Archaic publishing systems and mediocre hardware provided to employees.
