      Management's inexperience allows for mistakes, but retaliation exists

      Pros

      Most of people in management is new (inexperience), so even if you make mistake or fake things they will hardly understand. Means, you will always have enough time to correct your own mistake before it goes bad and with very less possible quick escalation.

      Cons

      1. The company highly prioritizing putting or having people in position based on the pay, the lower cost of having someone in the company the longer that person will stay. 2. From time to time, the company will pouch highly talented individual from other company, will offer decent pay and sign-on bonus, but will only let them stay less than 12 months before laid them off. This is a strategy so they can let their lower paid staff learn from high skilled employee and only paid less amount for severance for the talented employee because the employment is less than 1 year. 3. The mid management (Manager/ Regional manager/ Global manager), despite the existing ethic, will continue retaliate every time they got escalated to their manager. Termination due to this case is not rare.
