Son, don't tell me what I saw was an exaggeration. I could provide names but I wouldn't stoop to the level of your employer. Good luck. I hope you survive the upcoming purge, because you an I both know that involentary separations are coming next. But I'm certain you'll do just fine as it sounds like you've made the most of your brown nosed opportunities.
Burnett sounds a lot like GM. Ivory tower mentality even though they went bankrupt, no one did it better than them. Even in 2008 when the grass at the Milford Proving Grounds was knee high because they couldn't afford to pay to have it cut, no one did it better.
I'm glad you asked this. There are multiple reasons, but probably the biggest reasons were 1) When I started at GM I had just started my family and me and my wife decided she would leave her job and stay at home to raise our kids so it was important to have stable income and benefits. 2) When you get a job at GM as a salaried employee within a couple years of graduating college, you become brainwashed to believing that working for another company would be a step down. I mean "I work for GM!" 3) Crash of 2008 and its after effects made it vital to maintain stable employment as job prospects were pretty slim for several years thereafter. I'm much happier where I'm at now. I work in emerging technology, managing a great team of people.
I spent over 20 years working as a salaried employee at GM. Most toxic and political work culture. I survived the last salaried purge of 2018-19. It was horrible watching co-workers being escorted out of the building, many in tears. Most of which had spent decades as faithful employees only to be tossed out like trash. I left GM in 2020 and went to another OEM. It was the best decision of my working career. Went from a toxic dead end environment to getting two promotions in less than 3 years. Goes to show there is light at the end of a dark tunnel.

Finally someone who doesn't get all worked up over some other person's beliefs. This is called tolerence. I wish more people on this site might try it. If you don't like what someone has to say simply scroll on, it's that easy.
Summer of 1977 I was a 10 year old kid playing Little League baseball in the East Detroit city league. We used to play at Memorial Park. One day one of our games finished and right after the game the Detroit Caesars were playing on their field, so my dad decided to stick around and watch the game. So, I'm dressed in my dirty Little League uniform taking in the game. Sometime during the game, former Detroit Tiger Norm Cash who played for the Caesars was injured and went to the locker room to change and call it a day. My dad had a great idea to go see if we could meet him. We decided to wait in the restroom which was connected to the locker room so when Norm Cash went to exit the locker room we would have a chance to say hello. So we walk into the rest room and there stood Norm Cash, one leg on the floor the other leg propped up on a bench bare ass naked drying himself off with a towel. Why he wasn't in the locker room I'll never know. Needless to say it was a short visit. Some things you just can’t unsee.
Wolverine nation goes into meltdown because Sam Webb tries to read between the lines of Schlissel's presser. The drama and pageantry of college football doesn’t get much better than this. Sooooo.

Not my vid, and I never played a recorder before, but I probably could have done a better job.

I'll tell you where. New college hires. They think that's the silver bullet that can solve all their staffing problems.

Your career is a journey that intersects with your family. And yes it can take time to figure out what you want.

Sure Hoke loves the program, but I'm sure he wouldn't sacrifice $4mil a year to take a position coach job. It's all about the Benjamins.
Fo shizzle to the Schlissel bitches.
