The sinking of the Titanic from an engineering perspective would be the best way to look at this company and its department heads. When the ship hit the berg, damage control reported no problems to the captain. Fitting as he is a Naval Academy grad and at least means well despite being run off course. Meanwhile the bow filled with unnecessary bureaucrats, toxic new hires and lookie lou's. Damage control eventually meant that the executives ran towards the stern first as the bow began to sink. Directly behind them, us, the blood sweat and tears of a start up. And our heads made for a good game of lilly pad leaping for them so they didn't get their shoes wet. All the while, reporting to the captain, all is well.
Layoff after layoff, the climate before each akin to a bloody lions den as executives position themselves not to take the heat for the numerous lack of attention to detail. Toxic behavior becomes the norm and employees begin to feel unsafe, around their own bosses. Scalps lay on the floor, ours. as they move to the aft pulpit.

The best have left, the rest, devoted as they may be are a mixture of the purest of heart, and the most insidious individuals that you can come across in a business setting. Caveat Emptor.
