-Substantial tech, math & analysis illiteracy in at the manager/director/VP levels, and overt disinterest in learning the necessary skills, means the efforts of business intelligence/data science's effort are largely wasted.
-Complete lack of concern about making BI/data professionals feel valued.
-My professional recommendations and report presentations were typically rejected or overridden by the managerial class in favor of extremely antiquated approaches one would only expect from the pre-computer graphics era, pre 1980s. The reasons for these denials were never substantive - they were only ever appeal to tradition/authority fallacies. I.e. "that's just the way the managers/directors want to see it", "that's how they're used to seeing it", or "they want a flat table of text, because they don't believe line, bar, scatter charts".
-Refused pay increases beyond 3-4% even in light of inflation.
-My lead (a director) does not advocate for me in any serious fashion. At least in my department, there is no sense of "wanting to elevate the younger colleagues".
-401k match is minimal, significantly less generous than what I got at a legacy aerospace firm.
