Bait and Switch - Worst working environment ever

Administrative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

So many people are concerned with being "VP's" and looking important, they forget to look at you.

Cons

They will tell you anything and everything you want to hear then point fingers at everyone else when it's time to execute the plans. Everyone wants to be the boss but no one wants to actually do any of the work. Horrible horrible environment.
