Minpunten
Management has no desire to actually manage employees. Their goal is to hand off a task with zero preparatory work to make the employee successful. The employee is expected to dig up the information to do their job.They expect new employees to have years of experience in the defense industry and provide little to no training. Also a mindset of everything is classified making it difficult to obtain basic information to do your job. Management then complains when employees are ineffective on the job. Many facilities are a revolving door with new hires leaving in disgust after 3 - 4 years working there. Very little opportunity for advancement, section heads are selected from those the dept manager has a long term friendship with. It is rare for an employee to be selected to be a section head due to department managers surrounding themselves with fellow employees they have worked with on projects for many years. This environment fosters a cut throat relationship with all the other employees. Don't be surprised if your fellow employees stab you in the back in order to gain favor with management.
