Turned into more Politics instead of Product

Pros

Peers are highly talented individuals that when allowed to be creative can prove the brand deserves its recognition.

Cons

Way too much politics to get anything done. Management looks at employees as threats and problems.

Let down

Pros

Many of the people at WebMD have great untapped potential. The Atlanta office is friendly and very "together" as far as getting things done. The project-level folks at New York office were also very good to deal with and competent. With very few exceptions a great bunch to work with.

Cons

Actually working here can be claustrophobic and chaotic. It is generally very difficult to move forward on project work here due to many of the product and project managers being forced to play CYA with a handful of VPs. There are product people who are trying to code or admin. There are VPs who are not focused on leading their respective groups but trying to be far too hands-on with day-to-day work. Comany desperately needs leadership, but because of the above factors I do not think that the leadership will coalesce easily. They are busy with petty distractions and that needs to change.
