Good ole boys manage the company for the most part leaving playground bullies and back stabbing thugs the winners.
Pros
Competitive Salary and bonus plan although bonuses are rarely paid unless you can walk on water.
Cons
Uses Bell Curve to force those rated as lowest are placed on probation or terminated, those in the mid 74% range get patted on the head and told try harder next time, and only those in the top percentile get raises, perks, bonuses, and or promotions. Sounds like a great incentive plan until you realize that out of 100 people every year roughly 14% have to be put on probation and a percentage of those have to be terminated. My former manager is a bigot and sexist so he used his power to drive people out he didn't approve of and with a PC approach to justify his racism and sexist views. Hopefully HR has outed him for what he is and he isn't bullying people anymore. But Crisco promotes these values from my experience and rallys around such people at management levels so work as hard as you may your number will eventually be up, unless you're the Sociopath that can manipulate the system in your favor.
