Incapable premature managers. How do you deal with them? Graduated from a top tier MBA school and got placed in P&G India. Thought i landed a sweet deal but reality seems different. There are a few brand directors (for context - kind of the CMO for their brands and report to brand business heads) who have a mere 4-5 years work ex post their MBA who somehow do not understand what it takes to manage people. It's an up or out system at p&g and all they are worried about is their own visibility and blowing up a... 4 3 replies

It’s like they want to marry the girl and not me. What annoys me... 5 31 replies

But I cannot find a quiet place anywhere in my house since their home is only 15 feet away from mine and ear plugs can only do... 3 25 replies

Some cheaper industries will still be outsourced, moving from China to Vietnam, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and India. But the truly profitable industries will be heavily guarded now, look at China's EVs,... 5 5 replies
