While there's seemingly much opportunity within a huge corporation, employees get pigeon-holed into their role. Management *says* there's room for growth and exploring new job possibilities.
In my years with Hasbro, management did little to elevate my current position (or attain an alternative role) to place me on a solid career path. Unfortunately, as with any major corporation, you are a drop in the bucket. They want you to stay on autopilot in your role and hit your marks everyday. You have to either schmooze your supervisor to get a promotion, or schmooze people in other departments to move onto a different role. It's all about who you know....and little to do with your hard work, creativity, or potential.
It's a great company if you want to coast -- not if you want to grow.
Finally, the company's fake interest in "wokeness" or "diversity & inclusiveness" is sickening. It's a complete lie. When you hear your managers flat out telling you they're seeking diverse candidates, it's not for the betterment of our community. Managers do this to get golden stars from upper management, and the corporation is using a phony marketing tactic to preserve their "precious" image in front of the even phonier media.
You'd think employees would see through the completely bogus initiative to hire more diverse candidates; but there are many weak-minded sheep who fall for this unnecessary pandering....and I say this as someone who could easily use my diverse background to manipulate my way through this fabricated system.
