This company is built on layers of yes men on top of one another.
Good and intelligent people get fired every other day and disappear because they are not yes men.
EM in payments has a bunch of cronie followers and they are her hench men. You get fired if you irritate them or put a suggestion on their PR.
Include couple of yes men in another teams you got full control over everything.
You want to survive here, the thing to follow is say yes to everything they say, praise them for their intelligence. Say they are the best.
Sometimes they get snarky and irritated, may be you touched his headphones accidentally may be you did not like his comment on slack. Apologize then and there. Else the next feedback session you might be fired or get a strong negative review.
Some people are just plain racist. Just on your face. You say that you are offended, you get fired . You have no team spirit.
