85% of senior leaders are incompetent at A+E

Business outlook

Pros

Free core benefits .There are none .You have IT people who don’t have technical skills .You have HR people who should be in philosophy jobs or teaching yoga instead of being true business leaders. You have finance people who don’t know what they are talking about. You have people who don’t know how to use the computer in analysis roles.

Cons

HR team sucks. Have you ever double check your paycheck and realized someone made a mistake from HR? Have you ever question confidentiality? There is none. There is no performance review system. If you dare have concerns about your manager, she or he will take your bonus away. Sexual harassments and discriminations lawsuits are about to happen left and right. Please hire smart people. Don’t just promote seniority people into roles they are not qualified for.

Things will only change if Paul is willing to make the hard decisions and get rid of toxic people especially those in HR

Pros

From the looks of it, the new President, Paul Buccieri, is very much intent on changing the toxic and hostile culture across the organization. I trust he can get it done if he makes the tough decisions and rids his organization of the people responsible for inciting and supporting such culture.

Cons

Believe the negative reviews. HR and upper management retaliates against people raising concerns about sexism and discrimination. Calling themselves "The People Team" is not just misleading, but is perceived as a joke. Women are told to "suck it up and grow thicker skin" when it comes to complaints against sexist conduct.

General tension in the workplace as ratings have fallen. Not a lot of management accountability when projections are not met. Widespread finger-pointing.
