As the title says, my department is a few hundred people. We have endless directors and VPs, yet none of them are capable of handling even the simplest escalations. They can't make a single tough decision, so our entire department basically performs at bare minimum performance. People doing the work simply stay in their silo because they don't give a shit. (Who can blame them?)
The best is that eventually serious issues can't just be ignored forever, so once leadership is forced to move on it the issue has become far worse than if they had taken 10min to review and fix it months ago.
Pretty depressing to watch people being paid $200-$500k/yr do less than pretty much anyone beneath them. There is zero accountability, so I guess how can you blame them. Corporate America is so amazing! /s
