Favoritism runs amok - IT Staff Thrivent Employee Review

The current leadership in IT is very heavily based in favoritism & only promotes those in favor with leadership. It’s very demoralizing for those working hard but not getting noticed or promoted. VPs & Directors claim to value innovation but have a very fixed mindset about their opinions of people. There are people in people leader roles that have no experience and treat their employees poorly- avoiding one on ones, not dealing with conflict & putting unrealistic / unstated expectations on staff.
