* a prime example of a rat race
* some managers (let's call them ratagers) don't want to stoop that low to talk to their team members honestly and listen (i know, my bar was set too high)
* ratagers treat their subordinates like air - don't aknowledge they exist in the same physical space time continuum
* ratagers resort to bullying and are plain rude (or just ignore you if they can)
* a lot of politics and kindergaten fights
* no real action, ratagers love talking a lot especially in meetings, preferably as many as possible, maybe some global gathering for loads of money before the subject is changed
* no interest in investing in technologies (oldies are not always goodies, IT is not music or wine) and training existing staff (so if you wanna learn anything new - run,Forest! RUUUUN!)
* if you think you might develop any new skills in teams that do use newer technoligies than java 6 make sure you got a proper training from Tramp staff and that your managers at least somewhat likes you because ratagers in their naturtal habitat tend to act upon their personal feelings
* if you're hoping for regular salary bump either become a rat or a blackmailer
* ratagers rarely know what they're doing. they just have overblown egos that need to be petted and adored
* ratagers are proud of their corporate values that have absolutely no reflection in reality (we can always make negatives into positives, right? these are more like false positives)
* ratagers love to have their self-congratulatory cake with a 'google of a travel industry' cherry on top. in reality it's a pile of manure in a fancy package
* ratagers apart from aformentioned cake feed on panic, intimadtion, threats and more meetings and action points.
* if you like rodents (there might be some snakes there too so make sure you also like reptiles) this is a perfect place for you!
* otherwise don't come near with a barge pole.
