I really enjoy the product we put out to our customers. We work with some of the leading companies in the world and help them succeed! The cons that really stand out is management. There are some folks that manage people that have zero experience in doing so. You have some folks that have been with the company for nearly 10 years and is only in their position based on seniority not necessarily skill. You have folks that have the title but only work within their click, sort of like mean girls. You some folks that are the Van Wilder of Airship. They think they're the most popular but only to their team of "yes" folks. You have folks that talk like they read the most recent hot leadership book only to fail miserably whenever they are challenged by some that have outside work experience. You have folks that think they're The Rock, when they're just a pebble. These folks unfortunately have the title of VP/GM and while they are very experienced with Airship, have no real experience outside of the organization. I understand it's always better to hire within for financial reasons (someone that has been with the company for 5+ years will never command someone from outside of the organization's salary requirements. Unfortunately, this will create a rift between the old guard and newer, more seasoned professionals.
