Advice to Senior Management

I would suggest people in a team have more say in some decisions. I would have liked my manager to have gone to bat a little more in regards to raises.

Attractive brand name, attractive account to manage

Boring, brainless to the point of silliness. Job description do not measure up to actual role. The position is hollow one that does not require real decision making or creates impact in any way. No much to discover and suitable for coasting.
