Senior Management Arrogance

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is doing good science and has the potential to help future cancer patients.

Cons

Senior management is extremely arrogant. The president has named a major part of the organization after himself, the "offman" organization. Senior management has mandated that there are no offices, that being said all of the leadership team has staked out offices for themselves. Senior leadership is very much a club where they are very friendly to each other and completely ignore those beneath them.
