Dislikes

...ists, where those who are not part of the inner circle are treated as outsiders. This can negatively impact promotions, salary hikes, and opportunities to showcase one's skills, regardless of competence. Moreover, mid-management often lacks the capability to effectively lead the team, further contributing to an unfair work environment. In such situations, one often faces two choices: either adapt and align with the group, including engaging in flattery, or leave the team or organization. Additionally, internal job postings (IJPs) are often influenced by connections and internal referrals, making it even harder for outsiders to progress.
