People are promoted for the wrong reasons. There is a serious amount of nepotism and cronyism within the company and it transcends from the upper levels to the lower levels. These people who have connections are entitled to live by another set of rules than the rest of the people and they seem to get all the key positions. If you take a look at the key players in each department you will find that they have some "more than professional" connection to one of the "BIG Four". This cannot be of mere coincidence. This company keeps these people around to collect a paycheck while the rest have to work harder for the same or less pay. This company also lets people go really really quick and fails to take the time to invest in someone's true potential and value. This company lacks vision to maximize peoples true potential. Also this company does a successful job of promoting a political agenda to its employees. This company does not value diversity in ideas but rather only seeks people to "toe the company line" if you are innovative or creative or have some value that might threaten upper managements vision then you are in jeopardy of losing your job. In my experience on the bottom rung of this company I was treated like a child with my every move monitored and calculated. My performance was severely harmed because I was not allowed to function in the way in which I thrive. I was looked over my shoulder and counseled way to many times for things that I shouldn't have been.
