Caveat to the Pros: Dysfunction is created by people who have difficient technical skills, poor communication skills, poor comprehension skills (reading and otherwise), unprofessional temperments, and little interest in learning anything outside the narrow scope of their jobs. Management will be all too happy to ring all of the contributions they can get out of you while depriving you (via various machinations) of recognition and reward, if they have tagged you as not worthy of respect and elevation.
