Unfortunately, I've seen political battles leave the rank and file in a
position where they didn't know what to do as the winner didn't have a plan
beyond winning the battle.... Lacking direction/saleable product/resources
most of the rank and file couldn't perform well. That combined with 0%
raises led to more discontent and departures. I'm tired of watching formerly
high performing organizations fail due to this kind of stuff...
