Highly Politicized Conglomerate - Director GE Employee Review

Ethics and intergrity are wounded by management unwilling to hear forthright and honest alternatives to proposed business strategies. Constructive negative feedback loops to management don't exist and the ones that do (ombudsman) are reactionary to protect the company not assess route causes or seek problem resolution. Annual preformance reviews, Session 'C's and the 360 assessment are pure popularity contests and less about employee absolute performance, more about who is in favor: the circa bottom 10% are let go irregardless of being a good accountant, engineer or 'imagineer'. GE sr. management fosters the concept that everyone must possess the abilities for leadership, which is a distorted view. The chosen business leaders are less leaders of business: FMPs and other annoited high-flyers breeze through businesses inexperienced and unprepared to manage or make effective long-term positive impact on the underlying operations and when they depart the business is left weaker and the departing manager lauded with usual praises leaving staffers uninspired.
