WVO corporate headquarters promotes a toxic and unprofessional environment. Those that come from other companies who are true professionals and try to do the right thing are kept back from advancement due to senior management's insecurity. Incompetence, lack of knowledge and lack of managerial training is immediately obvious. People spend the majority of their time pointing fingers at one another and accomplishing nothing - this is done by design so there is no accountability. There is no one to turn to - not even Human Resources because they don't have a clue and their methodologies are decades old.
The people that remain are ineffective but they are there because they are really good at one thing: playing politics. Mostly, the Product Development staff is unethical, unscrupulous and not at all dedicated to the peak performance of the company. Decisions are based on favoritism. It is acceptable for the procurement team to sleep with vendors, take bribes and accept gifts that have no limits. There is no procurement protocol. All they do is travel and party, party, party - all on the company's dime.
I just have three words to say to the investors: sell, sell, sell! Sooner or later WVO will come tumbling down as they don't have a strong management team to support the pillars.
