Pros

A well-known company with the best cell network.

Cons

Contentious environment with numerous groups and executives trying to out-maneuver each other. Rarely any cohesion in working across groups.

Advice to Management

Don't convey that the company as a whole is unified and one, all rowing together, when everyone knows that isn't true.

In a corporation of your size, it's a given not everyone will always agree. Please spend more time seeking true collaboration within, rather than having all the top executives go through the motions of:

  • useless town halls
  • meaningless LinkedIn updates
  • fabricated press releases, etc.
