Favoritism and micro-management

Johnston, IA

Former Employee – worked at DuPont Pioneer

ProsThe projects involve interesting, scientific work. Benefits are decent, better than most on Des Moines.

ConsAs said in an earlier review, there really is no chance for advancement based on merit. Work is frequently kept hidden so it's not claimed by management. Work techniques aren't shared. Change is discouraged unless one gets a manager to claim it as their own idea. Recognition and choice projects are all based on connections and politics. Everyone, especially who gets promoted, is all connected somehow, related, frat brother, etc. Upper management is never held accountable for mistakes or worse. Employees find out about important events via news media before being told at work.
