Terrible management and toxic political environment

Business Outlook

Pros

Good technology, ability to work from home, a few very bright people

Cons

A very high number of incompetent managers being allowed to make terrible decisions. Too much empire building going on. HR completely out of touch with what's going on in the employee base. In general, the company could care less about the employees. They just talk a good game. So many new players it is hard to tell where the problem begins.
