If you like working at a place with self indulgent, entitled, hubris ridden, disconnected leadership, this is your place. High turnover and low associate satisfaction is rampant. Heroics and excessive overtime/work are the norm for associates in this chaotic, disorganized environment. Leaders use associates for political cover. Efforts by associates, top performers in particular, go largely unappreciated and unnoticed by leadership (a.k.a. the executive tier - middle management and up). Associates are over taxed as leadership maintains regular schedules - attending conferences, conducting meetings (read - wine and dine) with vendors, taking vacations (the leadership vacation allotment is extremely generous), taking large bonuses in the neighborhood of 30% of base minimum and even more (associate's is less than 1% of base for many). ...but hey... they think they deserve it and the associates do not... This all occurs while top performers are left out in the cold. Top performers at the associate level receive very little - very few promotions, measly bonuses, paltry vacation allotments. What they do get is excessive work and overtime. When working excessive overtime leadership is usually absent. If this is what you are looking for, what's not to like? It's not hard to see why many associates get fed up an finally leave. The good leave and the rest stay as is usually the case with this type of environment.
