The downside of employment at Hunter Industries is the lack of worker appreciation, promotions, and most of all the ability to have a normal family life. Not many places will force someone to come into work within three hours of their wife giving birth to their new baby, but the Hunter Industries I.T. Department will.
There is not a single department within the corporation that has not acted in this manner. Whether it is the Engineering Department with the passing of an immediate family member, Sales Department when someone admits they have a chemical dependency issue, etc. The list is long yet distinguished.
Personal vendettas are the Achilles heel within the deeply entrenched middle management staff. Anyone that has worked there has to admit that "middle management runs the company." While this phenomenon is interesting from a case study standpoint being semi-militaristic and all but; is only in practice because upper management is never allowed to create or even have a relationship within the work environment of the subordinates below these managers.
