Overworked, underpaid, terrible enterprise managers - Anonymous employee CoBank Employee Review

Some of the enterprise leaders in IT and Data should not be in their position of authority. They have toxic management style and use intimidation as their primary mode. Most efforts move slow because these managers are ambitious, top load projects, but have no sense of how to develop teams and have adequate capacity. Some of the SVP should actually be individual contributors, they are condescending, and brats with little self awareness about how teams are responding. Managers are always in meetings. They expect employees to learn from consultants. There is really not much coaching or directing from managers, expect for more work being directed downwards, with no plan to improve how the work will be delivered. All managers who want to make a difference are overworked, which leaves little time or ability to build and develop a culture that can produce results. Project which should take months end up taking years. These projects are haphazardly added to plates and we are expected to deliver. Please be careful when considering CoBank. Work/life balance is a myth.
