So much focus on structured and strategies at its best but people are lacking some leadership at certain level of authority. ERP should apply to all and everyone should have to carry out the responsibility of thinking outside the box other than those at the executive level.

Work culture can be tough at times with so much pressure combined with the political environment.

average/fair baseline salary; good benefit package

very political. if you don't enjoy politics and do not do it well, you'll pay for it dearly. if you have great diplomatic skills, know whom to be friends with, know how to change your friendships when power goes from one group to another, you'll do great. nothing else matters.
