Speed over quality is their mantra. Seniority is the only thing that matters, not ability or being right.
Send a poll to all employees asking what their career goals are or what they feel is their most valuable skill.
Then send a poll to every manager asking them to describe what they feel each of their employees' career goals are and what their most valuable skill is.
You'll get an idea of what managers care about their employees and which are just climbing over them to get up the ladder.
