This is basically how the game is played. The other half is that managers hire their unqualified friends into those same high level positions no questions asked. No hoops. no career development carrot and stick bullshit. Welcome to office politics. You are a fool if you jump through the hoops. Smart employees will just go get the job they want somewhere else.

- randycupertino 10y agoI had my first and last experience ever working for a family owned business where the 3 daughters of the owner (straight out of USC) were hired to be the "Directors" of their own departments... with no employees. These girls had nothing to do so they started killing time making insane mandatory dress codes, spirit events and MANDATORY halloween costume and cubicle decorating contests. They drove company Porsches and took private jets to golf tournaments with clients. When they brought in the daughters boyfriend got brought in to be the biz dev guy, who also went to USC and also had no experience other than being the "biz dev" guy of his father's chain of carwashes... He told me one day he was going to "dev the shit out of some biz" .... I put in my notice. I think I still have PTSD from working there.
