Oh, where to start. There isn't one department within the company that isn't affected by traditional office politics. As the company strives to become more corporate, it has put people in certain power positions that are cutting out any ideas from regular employees. While important for every department to work together to help the company grow, the company has strapped down and focused on trying to achieve "numbers", while forgetting that they need the proper teams in place to do so. Because the company is based out of Pennsylvania, many employees within that office are "legacy" employees, but they have a very backwards way of doing business, and that, among other things, will ultimately lead to the downfall of this company. The "good ol boy" system just doesn't work anymore. This isn't the 1980s. And any company that COMPLETELY restructures its sales management system, from sales managers to co-owners of the company, within 6 months, just isn't right.
