The R&D department has it a bit harder; there is usually a class with a consultant (a university professor) once a month. The colleagues are generally pretty nice (though this is not necessarily true of those at the managerial level).
Some managers have serious problems with the way they lead people, such as insufficient knowledge or poor logic. Sometimes, even after you complete the tasks assigned to you, you get reprimanded by the boss, while the manager merely hides behind you and does not dare to speak up. Afterwards, they criticize you with the benefit of hindsight and tell you how you should have done it, but this often ends up taking twice the effort for half the results. It can be bad enough to make people overlook the advantages mentioned above and want to resign.
