“Top Talent”? He sounds like a spoiled prima donna with a God complex. He lacks so many of the basic skills expected of senior talent (mentoring, collaboration, communication…) that my head’s spinning. And it’s completely and utterly management’s fault. A bad employee left to his own devices will drag a team down faster than a flushing toilet and all of the employees around him will lose all respect for management for letting the environment become so toxic.
It’s always management’s fault… until it’s not. Rick should’ve been coached right until the point where his manager and HR determined he was uncoachable. Then he should’ve been shown the door.
