Lack of promotions - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Reading Bakery Systems: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Whisper down the alley - for example if there's an issue, people (management) cannot communicate a direct problem unless the supervisor is first informed, then that supervisor goes to another supervisor, who then relays the issue to a person that can actually fix an issue, meanwhile supervisor gets the praise for fixing an issue. Long standing employees receive little promotions. Newer employees allowed to climb the ladder. Upper management is a buddy club. If you're not their buddy, you don't fit in. No defined career paths or directions for advancement. They'll hire a person to make them diversified instead of hiring the right person.
