Advancement: I haven't really seen any advancement opportunities for myself nor have I seen any one in my department gain advancement. I have applied and interviewed for a few jobs to advance within the company and have not been the selected candidate due to the departments sticking with someone already there or myself not being directly qualified and the other department being unwilling to train someone on the inside.
E board and Management from a production persons point of view is disconnected. E board is thinking and applying ideas but management has no clue whats going on and performs a different way. This is only observation and personal conclusions from experience.
Employees are given a chance to try out being a manager without previous experience and without proper mentor-ship in place for them to figure out how to be good managers vs employees given a chance to perform at a higher level under a well versed functional manager who can mentor and build a strong team. This idea seems a little backwards to me. I would rather work for a manager who knows more about managing and the over all goals than work for a manager that has no idea what they are doing when leading a team.
This disconnection between E board, management and workers is where I believe a lot of failure and distrust comes from and is holding back the company.
