Corporate Executive Board Sales Associate Manager in London, England (United Kingdom):   (Past Employee - 2009)

Pros

interesting place to start after university, and an honest delivery of a good bonus if you hit your targets.

Cons

In the position listed above, you have no say over your team, you are possessed by a senior, who themselves have little to no intelligence in terms of creativity or delegation skills so as to let you do your job properly. As a middle manager, you actually have no power to deliver the kind of changes you want to make in your own team, in addition to being delivered dishonest messages regarding chnages in company structure.

Advice to Senior Management

avoid using middle managers in any sense, they are a waste of company revenue and act as over zealous 'kindergarten' supervisors of a team which hold real intelligence but are held back with the prospect of the next gig bonus.
