Dislikes

Toxic hierarchical culture at least in the Networking Business Unit (NBU). Little to no trust in employees and a lot of micromanagement at all levels in the chain. Incompetent managers who are constantly distracted and don't have clear action plans for meeting their goals. They pass this on to their direct reports and don't know what it means to stand for their team. Often feels like a school setup where the VP chides you for being a minute late to a meeting and schools you on every little thing. Overall this group has no intentions of understanding f what it takes to keep employee morale up.
