Unrealistic

Pros

- Decent pay - Job security

Cons

- Constantly frustrated with open ended discussions between myself and my management - Unrealistic deadlines and expectations - Many people in the company use the excuse of "I don't know". The work is then left to fall on the people that do with no repercussions for the people that don't. - Lots of wasted resources spent "putting out fires" with no intention of fixing root cause. - Very negative culture. - Extremely low moral - Lack of management competence - Much of the work completed is just to put on a show. In other words, management doesn't know what to do therefore they throw resources at the problem to say that they are doing something. Most management spends their entire days on useless conference calls rather than managing their department.
