100% - anyone who thinks that this is the reality at every organization is delusional. Medtronic is a complete fuckhole. Like most, the day I left was a celebratory occasion.
Very simple. Manage up and abuse your team (blame the field team & mktg team) for anything that isn’t great…& have a manager that is a complete tool. BB is so out of his depth.
