"The facilities were old and worn out. The carpet was dirty, the cubicles were dirty, and the HVAC systems were constantly going down. The office spaces and labs were in major need of a face lift. I found that fault finding and blame shifting were used frequently by Program Managers and Resource Managers. If you didn't cover your tail with an email it was a guarantee it would be taken advantage of. Performance reviews were unfair and good reviews were given to the Resource Manager's favorites. The Select could have company policy and rules bent for them by HR and management, but those rules and policies are strictly enforced when it benefits Uncle Rocky."
