Bright minds blocked by middle management

Senior performance engineer
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

In the right team, ideas spread and get realized Performance gets rewarded (mostly via benefits) Akamai's social engagement is outstanding Persistent market leader for a long time (if you count that as a 'pro') A fast pace of consumer technology adaptation

Cons

Individual performer culture (rather than teams) The trend to acquire innovation rather than inventing/developing Very different quality of "middle management" education and leadership skills Poor culture of relationship-building in remotely cooperating teams No (effective) career management, difficult to change job within the company
