Cons
I work in marketing. I know that management within my department has been soliciting people within the department to write "positive" reviews.. I am actively looking for new employment. The buck continues to be passed, as excuses are made for everyone within our department being unhappy or leaving. These excuses include "someone has to make the hard decisions, and people don't like those decisions sometimes and leave." The attrition issues within our department, from my opinion, has more to do with the way people are treated than with the decisions that are being made by the department leaders. I've never worked somewhere where there is a larger disconnect between middle-management and their employees. There is no effort to get to know their employees, become their friends, know about their families and personal lives, etc. In fact, the opposite couldn't be more true. It's almost as though there is a deliberate attempt NOT to connect with employees at a personal level. In addition, there is a "hire external" first mentality that prohibits talented individuals from getting promotions and opportunities within the marketing department.
