      Favoritism, popularity & politics over qualifications

      6 May 2021 - Anonymous Employee in Research Triangle Park, NC
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits package including 401k

      Cons

      Unless you’re someone’s favorite or popular, no opportunity for career growth. Extremely political and bureaucratic organization specifically in the Agriculture space. Management does not empower decision making at all levels. Decision by consensus/committee. Extremely hard to get things done in fact those that challenge status quo are viewed in a negative light and penalized through lack of opportunity. Very insular. Either you come from the industry and you’re “in” or you’re a part of the “popular club” or you’re out. There is talk of diversity and equity in the workplace but no focus or action behind the words. As a person of color I was never more aware of my color and lack of certain opportunities as I am in my current role. My workload consistently is several times greater than my peers, no one seems to care.

      Pros

      Good benefits, salary, and retirement funding. Excellent pay increases. Decent work day flexibility.

      Cons

      They expect way too much from their administrative professionals. Every time an admin left or was terminated, they rarely replaced them. They just redistribute the work to the remaining admins. Result: Overworked administrative staff who don't even want to be there anymore.
