Sadly, most American corporations resemble bureaucracies these days. Employees are more concerned with dotting the "i"s and crossing the "t"s than with profitable growth of the company. Most small businesses and entrepreneurs are mission oriented, but few of those could afford me. The one exception was the first two years that I was under contract to Toyota USA. There I learned the "Toyota Way" and it was like heaven. Sadly, they reorganized their upper management and the president was called back home to Japan to take a higher position in the parent corporation and his replacement wasn't up to leading and Toyota USA lost its way. Sad. Two years more and I happily moved on to other contracts.Response by CPT Jack Durish made Aug 23 at 2018 12:24 PM2018-08-23T12:24:45-04:002018-08-23T12:24:45-04:00SCPO Private RallyPoint Member3904452<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>My post military job management staff did not use proper leadership skills. It was opposite of every leadership skill I was ever taught or learned during almost 28 years active duty. It was a very hard adjustment for me. (I had to stay at the job due to wife medical issues.)Response by SCPO Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 23 at 2018 3:11 PM2018-08-23T15:11:17-04:002018-08-23T15:11:17-04:00Sgt Private RallyPoint Member3904577<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div><a class="dark-link bold-link" role="profile-hover" data-qtip-container="body" data-id="796668" data-source-page-controller="question_response_contents" href="/profiles/796668-12a-engineer-officer-84th-tc-usarc">MAJ Private RallyPoint Member</a> I was disgusted to work with many folks that had very poor work ethics. I also had a hard time dealing with managers that were incompetent.Response by Sgt Private RallyPoint Member made Aug 23 at 2018 4:20 PM2018-08-23T16:20:57-04:002018-08-23T16:20:57-04:00SGM Bill Frazer3904648<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Trying to work, while non-vets stand around the water cooler, whining/crying. Having them forget what the boss said was a priority. Worrying more about getting off early, than finishing their work., etc.Response by SGM Bill Frazer made Aug 23 at 2018 4:53 PM2018-08-23T16:53:42-04:002018-08-23T16:53:42-04:00MAJ Rj M3985568<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Leaving all the profanity aside just the simple fact of all the bigotry and hatred out there if you're associated with the military.Response by MAJ Rj M made Sep 22 at 2018 2:39 PM2018-09-22T14:39:51-04:002018-09-22T14:39:51-04:002018-08-23T11:58:38-04:00
