Pros

It is somewhat fulfilling to see what you work on making the news when it gets launched. That is, if it actually ever gets launched.

Cons

The constant shifting of company and division directions. The next re-organization always sounds a lot better than the previous, but is more or less just a reshuffling of titles amongst the same management team.

Advice to Management

I recommend looking towards your personnel and promoting people from within instead of looking outside the company.

There are some very qualified individuals who have always been overlooked and passed up for promotions.

Career development is virtually non-existent in my division. If you are doing a good job in your current position, management will just keep you there forever. Because, hey, you're doing a good job at what you do, right?
