There is no room for growth in the Finance department. If you want a promotion you have to be one of the CFO's or her direct report's favorite people. The interview process for internal positions is a joke, they already know who they want to hire/promote, it is just a formality. The Finance department can't decide what direction it wants to go and forget about process improvement. Since LN acquired ChoicePoint the processes and systems have gotten more complicated and almost everything we did took much longer. Get back to the basics and listen to the people that work for you.
