The application process really drags on and, for most, the components are excessive. They're looking for A-list players but the same caliber of management is not in place. It is very one-sided and can feel grueling. Also, from what I understand speaking with others, there is a habit of the responsibilities/roles being downplayed severely. Once you get into the role, most quickly find out that a lot more is expected of them than what they signed up for. For example, I was told travel would be "light" (about 5-10% of the time) but it was far more than that and 95% of my vehicle's mileage for the year was all work related. The TopGrading process and self-assessment portion are silly and easy to manipulate, so mostly a waste of time for everyone. It also leads to more unfair assumptions and expectations. It became evident early on that the upper management wasn't very familiar with the day-to-day challenges and responsibilities at the front lines. Overall, there is huge divide between the time investment and what you get in return. Last but not least, there is recurring theme about wanting people with a "sense of urgency" but the way upper management operates is anything but urgent/diligent, especially when it comes to simply taking care of their people. Read between the lines during the interview and make sure to ask discovery questions to get to the truth.
