- Pay ranges from poor to mediocre at the non-manager or non-lead level.
- Incredibly poor management (although a lot of the inept executives have been let go, there are still a bunch of "ambitious", suck-up incompetent people at the Director level; these guys haven't shipped anything successful in years but keep moving around teams and destroying their teams in the process).
- Way too many managers and way little management. Company seems bent on promoting people to managers and directors without any direct reports. What are they managing or directing?
- A non-trivial number of people admit they are at Real because they can't find a job anywhere else. This coupled with the constant layoffs does wonders for employee morale.
- Human Resources has plenty of people in the group but for all intents and purposes, most of them are pretty useless. The company has no growth chart or defined levels of any kind. HR only comes into the picture when there are layoffs.
