Pros
1. as someone mentioned previously, hiring freeze on ICs who do the job while hiring multiple top level staff, i.e. president, C-level etc. The company has the highest C-level and VP-level percentage among all the companies that I have ever seen in my >20 years work; one company strangely has TWO president, TWO CFO, chief product manager, chief...chief....chief..... Therefore they have meeting after meeting after meeting while no one really do the job and keep on working on the "program", 'roadmap" etc. They think they could hire someone while the salary is not competitive at all for regular employee. 2. most promotions are based on whether you have good relationship with "leaders", depend on years of you stay in the company
Kontras
