It's a Fortune 100 company with over 35,000 employee so I think researching the employee satisfaction might be tough.
I spoke about the management ordeal, and I think I would do fine. I hate being managed, and I am told that is what would make me a good manager. The guy recruiting me is a friend who I hang out with, and he seems to think I'm ideal. I have never had the opportunity to lead anything but projects, so I can't tell. I don't hate telling ppl what to do, though I would rather them do what I need them to do to get what we need done without having to tell them what exactly to do. And, I think that comes with getting the right ppl working for you.
However, I like to think I could care less about ppl. Still, I seem to know everything about every tech and operator I work with, more so out of genuine interest. When I ask them to do something it is generally done before I expect it, and the like to do those things for me. I can't explain it, I guess I am just like that.
I am really leaning towards doing it. My major concern is a) leaving biotech which many engineers strive to get in to, and b) being an engineer in a world that is more finance than anything else... I will be displaced. How will a manager who is an engineer be received? Most of these guys have years of experience before becoming a manager and the will be expected to accept me? I think that would be tough.
thanks for reading snoopy
