Pros
Great thought process, mental models and selling an idea
Cons
In the grand scheme of things, there are always layers of unseen practices that truly expose the character of companies and their employees. I find it very upsetting to know that, in challenging environments where solutions aren’t thoroughly processed—from business planning to budgeting—there are always promises made to those ignorant enough to be sold continuous lies, just to secure contracts and generate more revenue at the expense of anyone not on their gravy train. I found myself caught in the middle of divisive tactics that blocked work, killed deadlines, and destroyed overall confidence in the projects. What struck me as odd was that the head of it all seemed to be the absolute devil in disguise—plotting their takeover while sabotaging the solutions the entire time. Watching this unfold, and seeing others support it, made me realize that scum is scum, no matter how they package the lies or smile in your face. When deceit is used not only against external coworkers but eventually within the organization itself, the outcome is inevitable. The excuses are always the same—and when it all crumbles, no one should be surprised.
