Good placeholder job while you look for a better one with more opportunities - Senior Director Product Management College Board Employee Review

Senior management is very cliquey. With the recent reorganization it was disappointing to see that 99+% of the cuts were below the VP level and many employees have recognized it as well. I guess senior leadership felt that their positions are critical and self-reflection is not a virtue. Also, senior leaders made the decision who to eliminate from their ivory tower with ZERO input from managers, in some cases letting good performers go and keeping low performers. The reorg added workload to many, some significantly. Work life balance is not a priority although they claim it is and you can forget about diversity. Their answer was to ask managers to submit names of minority employees that should be considered for promotion. If you want promoted, you better do more than a good job and plan on acting like a toady with your manager and above.
