IV - Senior Manager Intellectual Ventures Employee Review

Pros

Some very smart and nice people, but sadly humanity seems to reduce as you go up the chain. You almost feel a part of cool stuff happening - but unfortunately <10% of the company is doing "cool" stuff, the rest feels like overhead. There's free snacks and parking.

Cons

- Lack of vision, leadership, transparency, and accountability - Executives tend to create echo chambers and self preservation bubbles whilst squandering time and money into self rewarding fiefdoms at the detriment of regular workers - Crippling politics is more important than doing the right thing and accomplishing tasks - Lack of meaningful career advancement, whilst executives tend to move about, promote and re-land without issue - Depression and fatigue are common
