Pros
I loved my job, until I I was denied advancement although I was already doing the work.
The unnamed person in Workforce Human Resources, had no HR background/experience, started out at a entry level position and zoomed up to EVP in 3-4 years, with apparently no proper training or guidance. This advancement what would normally take 15-20 years with a company this size. Managing people with more experience, knowledge, expertise, aptitude, insight, intellect, skills , and more professionally seasoned than him.
As an immature professional he doesn't have the aptitude, sensibility, or humbleness to even sharpen his managerial skills as a young new manager to understand how to best manage his professionally mature direct reports.
I am not sure if he is someone's family member or did a lot "special" favors, but he's not qualified for any of the roles to have lightening fast advancement.
He is so insecure and incompetent that he says "yes" to all the wrong things, overruling his managers decisions, making them feel useless and disrespected. To top it off, he rejects feedback or input from his team.
This unwarranted advancement created a monster of inflated arrogance, making him feel he can tell more qualified people than him, that they were not experienced enough for advancement.
The company is unintelligent thinking people should work more above their paid job, to then get advancement.
The unnamed HR VP fir HR for supports this nonsense and is ineffective.
Get the money and position you want upfront, don't fall in love with the name and the fame. If you have a better opportunity take it, don't stay hoping things will get better.
Cons
unfair practices for people with talent
