Extremely political place - Engineer Stand Together Employee Review

Heavily politically driven leadership, the senior staff have been there for a decade+ for just being there at the right time right place (most do not qualify) for their positions. Tons of favoritism between team leads which bends all sorts of rules and principles for the mid to lower team members. You are constantly being monitored and most times they were not providing a valid reason for laying people off, excuses such as down sizing was constantly used.
