HR (read: someone in the Philippines whom you will never even have a phone conversation with) will put you wherever there is a "business need". Most of the time these departments and opportunities are pure garbage and are of little relevance to the future, your career trajectory and the company's bottom line. RIP skills.
Because they just throw you wherever (and at little notice) this translates to you likely not having any experience working in the specific function, and at the same time you will not be supported/mentored to do the job correctly. I have been regularly working overtime and weekends without getting paid and I do not feel like I am getting any skills or experience, so I am hoping to leave soon.
There have been surveys sent out to global new graduates in the program. The results are summarized:
- Majority leave before their 3 years,
- <40% were satisfied to have completed the program
- 20% rated their line managers as good/sufficient
